Some Native American groups fear efforts are being made to erase the “Native history” of the Kansas City Chiefs, according to a new report from Fox News.
The report reveals that some Native groups fear Swift will be “enlisted” to “help [woke people] attack the Kansas City Chiefs over its Indian logos and much-maligned ‘tomahawk chop chant’ according to other online reports.
“It’s a woke firing squad looking to tear everything down by telling us that Native Americans and Americans need to be divided,” Maurice the Native Patriot (@lanativepatriot), a Swinomish Indian from Washington state, told Fox News.
“It’s become popular to think that even seeing a Native American image is racist.”
Maurice took aim at America’s political left in another post, writing, “You’re actively attempting to destroy American history and using Natives as your pawns of sacrifice to gain notoriety.” And added, “All I see is you attempting to destroy, delete, and forget about Native Americans and their role in American History.”
The report notes that the Chiefs have already “caved” to cancel culture by banning Native headdresses and asking fans not to do the tomahawk chop.
“Native American history is American history,” Tony Henson, the executive director of the Native American Guardians Association (NAGA) told Fox News. “This effort to divide us comes from the ‘hate-America’ Marxist crowd that wants to tear down tradition and rebuild the United States in their own image.”
Whether this is an actual attack on the organization or a meandering internet conspiracy remains to be seen.
