SWSiouxMN Posted May 13, 2014 Posted May 13, 2014 Here we go: http://www.grandforksherald.com/content/und-students-protest-offensive-shirt-incident-0 "Emmy Scott, former president of the Indian Studies Association, organized the event and said she wants to have the university officially denounce the now-retired Fighting Sioux logo, make racial sensitivity training mandatory for incoming students and ban the Fighting Sioux logo from all academic settings, among other things" Quote
MafiaMan Posted May 13, 2014 Posted May 13, 2014 At the Wild game last Saturday night a guy was drunk and really loud...in a Toews red Hawks sweater...with a full NA head dress on. At no point did I try to add all that up to equal all Indians are drunks like all students at UND are now racist per Jeanotte et al. It was just a drunk stupid loud white guy! President Obama is on-record as saying that the Redskins should change their name...why is he silent regarding the Blackhawks? Quote
Oxbow6 Posted May 13, 2014 Posted May 13, 2014 President Obama is on-record as saying that the Redskins should change their name...why is he silent regarding the Blackhawks? Cause his pockets are greased by those from his home state?? Plus Goodell pull the strings on that one. Quote

Goon Posted May 13, 2014 Posted May 13, 2014 President Obama is on-record as saying that the Redskins should change their name...why is he silent regarding the Blackhawks? Oh gee, I don't know? It's from his home city. This is getting silly... I am surprised that our dear leader Chairman Obama hasn't weighed in on this incident as well. 1 Quote
mg2009 Posted May 13, 2014 Posted May 13, 2014 President Obama is on-record as saying that the Redskins should change their name...why is he silent regarding the Blackhawks? you honestly can't tell the difference between the two? Quote
Goon Posted May 13, 2014 Posted May 13, 2014 you honestly can't tell the difference between the two? I think Mafia Man made a tongue in cheek comment. Quote

MafiaMan Posted May 14, 2014 Posted May 14, 2014 I'm starting to think all the people that are attending according to Facebook don't realize she's trying to get the Fighting Sioux name and logo band. Nevermind a band...they'll only need a single bugler...playing "Taps." Quote
Goon Posted May 14, 2014 Posted May 14, 2014 I'm starting to think all the people that are attending according to Facebook don't realize she's trying to get the Fighting Sioux name and logo band. I think he's also referring to REA as well. Emmy Scott, former president of the Indian Studies Association, organized the event and said she wants to have the university officially denounce the now-retired Fighting Sioux logo, make racial sensitivity training mandatory for incoming students and ban the Fighting Sioux logo from all academic settings, among other things.

MafiaMan Posted May 14, 2014 Posted May 14, 2014 you honestly can't tell the difference between the two? The Brien logo is a caricature but the Blackhawk logo is not? HUH? Quote
Oxbow6 Posted May 14, 2014 Posted May 14, 2014 The Brien logo is a caricature but the Blackhawk logo is not? HUH? Don't bother with a rhetorical question? Right over the head.............. 1 Quote

FSSD Posted May 14, 2014 Posted May 14, 2014 Someone put out the names on the UND facebook page too. What did I do? Checked the names in the directory. Every current student in is this directory Guess how many showed up as UND students? maybe 1. Did you check the NDSU directory? Quote
