Family Seeks Restoration of Chief's Image in NFL
News summary

The family of John Two Guns White Calf, a Blackfeet chief who was the logo for the Washington Redskins from 1972 until 2020, is advocating for the restoration of his image in the NFL following its removal amid cultural pressures. They argue that the logo was a tribute to Native American heritage, and polls indicated that many fans and Native Americans were not offended by it. Thomas White Calf, a great-nephew of the chief, expressed frustration that the family was not consulted about the change, despite the logo's significance to both sports and Native American history. Montana Senator Steve Daines supports the family's cause, stating that restoring the image would honor their heritage. The current ownership of the Washington Commanders has indicated a willingness to collaborate with the family to honor their ancestor's legacy. The family's campaign underscores a larger conversation about cultural representation and the impact of cancel culture on historical narratives.
