2015 We Heart WV posted an article - Should These 7 High Schools Change Their Mascots? -

- referring to high schools that use Native American Symbolism:

Parkersburg Big Reds, Berkeley Springs' Indians, Bridgeport Indians, Sissonville Indians, Morgantown Mohigans, Hurricane Redskins, and the Pocahontas County Warriors (click on their subject tabs to the right under HS to see images from each school).

The comments are quite telling. Many of them are people who actually attended these schools and have a personal - romanticized - connection with the images. A common belief is that the images are an honor to the Native American's BRAVERY, and that it's an HONOR, or a TRIBUTE to their memory.

change the name, mascots
