HONORABLE MENTION: LeBRON JAMES

Posted on October 11, 2007 - Filed Under Indian Mascots |

Honor Indians Institute would like to honor LeBron James for showing up to the Cleveland v. New York Yankee’s playoff game, in Cleveland, wearing a Yankee cap. King James says that he did so because he is a Yankee fan, and his friendship with Yankee icon Derek Jeter. Whatever his motivation, we honor him for refusing to wear the racist Indian caricature.

It will take at least one African American athlete of courage to stand up and say with word and/or action that Indian mascots are wrong. Honor Indians Institute would like to invite arguably the most recognizable African American athlete, LeBron James, aka, “King James,” to be that voice! Join with us in calling for education and alternatives to Indian mascots. Non-Indians dismiss Indian calls for education and change as “politically correct” garbage, and tell us to get over it and be “honored” by Indian mascots. Non-Indians, especially in Cleveland, will at least listen to you LeBron! JOIN US, KING JAMES!!!

For all you Indian mascot athletic supporters who can’t wait to tell Honor Indians Institute to get over it, go to counseling, or just shut up and be honored, please READ our position on Indian mascots at www.honorindians.com before responding.
