  • The two finalists for the inaugural Band of The Year at the D2 HBCU level remain strong to finish the season. The post ESPN HBCU Band of The Year: Nov. 2024 (Division II) appeared first on HBCU Gameday.

The article from The Charlotte Observer discusses the ongoing debate over the use of Native American mascots in schools, focusing on the recent decision by the Southern York County School District in Pennsylvania to retire its "Warrior" mascot. This decision was influenced by a new state law that prohibits public schools from using Native American names, logos, or imagery as mascots, nicknames, or team names. The article highlights the mixed reactions from the community, with some feeling a sense of loss for tradition, while others, including Native American groups, applaud the move as a step towards cultural sensitivity and respect. It also touches on the broader national conversation about the appropriateness of such mascots, mentioning similar changes in other schools and universities, and the ongoing efforts by Native American activists to eliminate these representations which they argue perpetuate stereotypes and cultural insensitivity.
