Re: Skins getting heat again over name issue
My major issue with this and the same with Redtails or any other name that involves a minority group. There will come a time in the future when the general perception of society will change. Will the name be considered a caricature, an appropriation or embracing a stereotype? Dan needs to think about the endgame here. Does he want to be rebranding 30 years from now because the tribal leader or societal position has changed?
