Accordingly, will you be dropping the "brown"? Which BTW is totally different from the similar sounding "dropping the brown". Ask Humpty if you need clarification.

Just another way of cleansing Native American's from history, sad state of affairs.

native americans don't want to be "honored" by being referred to as slurs and reduced down to racist cartoon mascots.Seacoaster wrote: ↑Aug 31st, '20, 11:35 Just another way of cleansing Native American's from history, sad state of affairs.
if you cared about native americans and their history, you would advocate for the education system to teach about their history without the whitewashing.

Totally agree!boston_e wrote: ↑Aug 27th, '20, 08:35 On the flip side is keeping the Squaw name really that important to you?
If native american tribes local to their area find it offensive, what is the big deal in dropping it, particularly where the two resorts Squaw and Alpine Meadows will be (or maybe already are???) connected?
Does not seem like something to get worked up about or has any effect on the skiing experience?

I'm waiting for the tv networks to stop showing westerns because of derogatory words.

Re: Squaw Valley dropping the squaw
When will we be tearing down the Statue of Liberty? Not everyone who immigrated to America was a green woman like her. My ancestors who immigrated here were not all green women, in fact I don’t think any of them were. And besides, Napoleon was French wasn’t he? He was a pretty controversial figure wasn’t he? Wasn’t he responsible for more deaths in Europe than anyone else besides Hitler? My ancestors in Europe probably suffered as a result of him. Tear that green French bitch down now before she offends me anymore!
We listed our house in NJ recently and were told that we couldn’t state “family friendly neighborhood” in the listing because it’s exclusionary. I said to the realter “you’re joking right?” I seriously thought she was. I almost blew a fuse.
I considered myself an independent before this last election and my voting record over the past 35+ years has been split almost evenly between both parties, probably more left leaning if anything, but after this last election and what I’ve seen out of the Dems between impeachment attempts (which they don’t think is divisive), Kavanaugh (which was a disgrace), socialist like Bernie and AOC, open borders madness, defunding the police lunacy, nauseating political correctness, the cancel culture, and that wench Nancy tearing up the state of the union address like a petulant child, I will never vote democratic ever again in my life.

Good luck selling your house in Jersey, lots more people moving out than in these days. So where are you moving to, VT?KingsFourMan wrote: ↑Sep 2nd, '20, 09:21 When will we be tearing down the Statue of Liberty? Not everyone who immigrated to America was a green woman like her.

Where was all the outrage when they renamed the glades north ridge? Really, who cares what the name is? The name don't affect the skiing.

Re: Squaw Valley dropping the squaw
What does changing the name of a ski area to take out a known racial slur have to do with trophies or the statue of liberty? It's a ski resort. A recreational facility. They change the names of places like this all the time. Do you get this upset when a stadium sells naming rights and ends up being named after a big corporation?
