Group Wants Nike To Stop Using Chief Wahoo Logo

A Native American group wants sports apparel maker Nike to stop producing and selling products that feature the Cleveland Indians' mascot Chief Wahoo. The group calls the caricature grotesque. It's part of a larger national debate about getting rid of offensive Native American names and images in sports. The group called Eradicating Offensive Native Mascotry plans a protest at the Nike headquarters this week and continues running a social media campaign.
