Rochester, NY – After years of criticism, the Washington Redskins decided recently they will be changing their name, which many consider to be racist. The change has other sports teams considering adjustments to avoid offending fans. Yesterday, Red Wings President Naomi Silver announced that in 2021, the Red Wings will be known as the “Rochester Native American Wings.”
The name change came as a surprise to local Native Americans, who in no way found the original name offensive. “You have to be careful these days,” Silver told an Inner Loop reporter. “In this hyper PC culture, there is no telling who you’ll offend. I think we can all agree that “Native American Wings” is a safer, more sensitive name than “Red Wings.”
