daybraekWell the Orioles mascot is the bird "Baltimore oriole (Icterus galbula)", not a bird in blackface first off. Secondly, my main problem with the Indian's mascot is the extreme accentuation of Native American traits, which although it's not necessarily racist, is kind of concerning when their entire concept is represented by a race they killed off.
Imagine the pain African-Americans must feel when they see this bird.
