Some Native Americans do not like the term Native American. Explain why they reject this name.

The names are making stereotypes about the Native Americans

One person in the BBC Video said that living in poverty does not mean they are poor. What do you think he meant by that?

That they try to make the best out of their lives

Some Native Americans approve of the team name Redskins. What is their reason for approving this name while others do not?

The name is making the Native Americans more popular

In the CNN segment, there was a story told about a woman who used to approve of the name Redskins, and now does not. What changed? Why does she no longer approve of the name?

Because they are probably adding things to the name Redskin

How can non-Native people help others learn about Native Americans current issues? What can we do to help?

We can raise money for the Native Americans

Sincerely,
