Aboriginal Stereotypes in Sports: Intentions gone horribly wrong?
http://thesportdigest.com/article/aboriginal-stereotypes-sports-intentions-gone-horribly-wrong
I thought this was an interesting article on the naming of mascots and athletic teams after aboriginal people. The marginalization and stero-typing of indigenous peoples is discussed in this article, with a look at the research into the historical context of such naming conventions. This has been a huge debate over the years, and the author examines the factors relating to this stereotyping.
