A Single Word
The Washington Redskins are no more! The team still exists and the ownership hasn’t changed (too bad), but the name finally has! And it only took about six decades.[1] That’s how long it took for enough people to understand that word is offensive. And… Continue Reading “A Single Word”
Life Is A Team Sport
