Braves, Indians and Chiefs don't directly refer to someone's skin color, nor were they used as a slur in the 1800's-1900's to summarize a type of people.
It's a pretty damn important nuance.
It's very simple to me: Society wouldn't tolerate a "Blackskins" team. Most of us would agree it's in poor taste.
Society would go ape shit over a "Whiteskins" team.
Why is Redskins any different?
