Re: “SoBu Decision to Drop Rebels Nickname Sparks Backlash”

In a world where no one is murdered for the color of their skin and racism does not exist - in this world, Rebel would be a name we could choose. But until that world exists the Rebel name and symbolism is psychologically damaging and promotes racism. Why we would we want any of our students not to feel safe? Even if just one feels unsafe, why wouldn't we want to ditch the name for the greatest good? I am deeply confused for the defense and argument to keep a name and mascot that is damaging to students in any way shape or form.
