Since then, the team has not only changed logos, but past images involving the logo have been censored.<\/p>\n<p>For example, a local D.C. news station started removing the logo in its archival footage and photos of the team. Similarly, when the NFL posted on X to honor previous Super Bowl winners, it censored the logo. Even the team sold a shirt that also blocked the logo. Sen. Steve Daines (R-MT) spoke before the Senate and commented on those examples of censorship.<\/p>\n<p>It is Sen. Daines who appears to have led much of the charge to un-cancel the logo. He, in an appearance on Fox News Channel\u2019s \u201cAmerica Reports,\u201d said,\u00a0\u201cWe were calling out leaders in case of really, woke gone wrong. The irony that they were canceling Native American culture as the DEI movement went way too far.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Continuing, he noted that the logo is meant to honor the tribe, saying, \u201cThis is honoring a Blackfeet chief who was born in Montana. He is highly esteemed. The Blackfeet tribe of Montana, their current chairman and tribal council signed a letter in strong support to bring the logo back. It honors Indian Country.\u201d<\/p>\n<div class=\"code-block code-block-2\">\n<div id=\"ld-9007-7028\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>Building on that, he described what uncancellation of the logo might mean, saying that \u201cgood faith\u201d talks indicate the logo could be used again. He said,\u00a0\u201cWe have good discussions with the NFL and with the Commanders. There\u2019s good faith in negotiations going forward that\u2019s going to allow this logo to be used again.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He added that revenues could go toward helping Native Americans, saying,\u00a0\u201cPerhaps revenues going to a foundation that could help Native Americans in sports and so forth. We\u2019re making good progress and, based on the good faith negotiations, I made a decision to support this bill yesterday in the committee.\u201d Watch him here:<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div id=\"rumble_v5resyw\">\n<div id=\"vid_v5resyw\" class=\"rumble_v5resyw-Rumble-cls\" tabindex=\"-1\">\n<div>\n<div class=\"bigPlayUI ctp\">\n<div class=\"bigPlayUIInner ctp\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Posting about the matter on Facebook, Sen. Daines\u00a0wrote, \u201cThe censorship of the former Commanders logo was a classic case of woke gone wrong. I applaud the Commanders &amp; the NFL for their commitment to never censor the logo again.\u201d He added, \u201cAnd for working with the [Walter \u2018Blackie\u2019] Wetzel family to restore the logo to a place of prominence and honor to benefit Indian Country.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In another such post, he included a picture of the old logo and captioned it by\u00a0saying, \u201cServing in uniform at the highest percentage per capita of any ethnic group, Native Americans\u2019 contributions to our nation are beyond dispute, and this rich heritage should be honored. This Veterans Day, let\u2019s celebrate this incredible legacy!\ud83c\uddfa\ud83c\uddf8\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In another post, he included a picture of an old Sports Illustrated cover showing a player wearing the old logo. He said, \u201c52 years ago this month\u2014Native American Heritage Month\u2014this was the @SInow cover. Iconic picture. Iconic Blackfeet logo. Not only should it never be censored, it should be restored to a place of honor.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>And, posting a video of himself speaking before the Senate about censorship of the logo and what it means about hiding Native American history, he captioned it by saying, \u201cThere\u2019s no reason to censor an image of a prominent Native American. On the contrary, Native American history should be celebrated and honored.\u201d Watch that speech here:<\/p>\n<p><script>!function(r,u,m,b,l,e){r._Rumble=b,r[b]||(r[b]=function(){(r[b]._=r[b]._||[]).push(arguments);if(r[b]._.length==1){l=u.createElement(m),e=u.getElementsByTagName(m)[0],l.async=1,l.src=\"https:\/\/rumble.com\/embedJS\/u4\"+(arguments[1].video?'.'+arguments[1].video:'')+\"\/?url=\"+encodeURIComponent(location.href)+\"&args=\"+encodeURIComponent(JSON.stringify([].slice.apply(arguments))),e.parentNode.insertBefore(l,e)}})}(window, document, \"script\", \"Rumble\");<\/script><\/p>\n<div id=\"rumble_v5retgt\"><\/div>\n<p><script>\nRumble(\"play\", {\"video\":\"v5retgt\",\"div\":\"rumble_v5retgt\"});<\/script><\/p>\n<p>Featured image credit: screengrab from the embedded video<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In potentially quite big news showing that some of the excesses of the woke years are on the way out, or at least retreating into the background&#8230; <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"om_disable_all_campaigns":false,"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"_uf_show_specific_survey":0,"_uf_disable_surveys":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-21184","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.4 -
