Video Of The Day

This ad, produced by the Yocha Dehe Wintun Native American Nation of California, is scheduled to air during Game 3 of the NBA playoffs.  It's powerful in its simple dignity, contrasted with the petulant,   childish attitude of Washington football owner Li'l Danny Snyder and his organization.

Imagine you're with a group of Native Americans.  Ask yourself whether you would refer to them as "redskins" to their faces.  Didn't think so.  That's the test of a racial slur.
