No Justice, No Ads

In response to a recent solicitation for ads in the 2015 Washington Redskins Yearbook, the Metro Washington Council informed Professional Sports Publications (PSP) that the Council in 2013 passed a “Resolution In Support of Changing the Name of the Washington Redskins Football Team”...

The resolution noted – among other concerns -- that “the term ‘redskin’ is defined in many dictionaries as a racial slur which is offensive to Native Americans,” and resolved “that the Metro Washington Council urges the owner of the Washington football team to change the name of the team so as not to offend or disparage any group of people in our nation.” The Council asked PSP to pass this along to the Washington football team management; we have not heard back yet from either PSP or the team.
