@Peter Choate - ( Hopefully, you'll see this. ) As one with a bit of tribal blood going way back, I didn't consider my opinion to be that important in the debate on "Redskins", but I've always said whenever the topic came up: Do a massive vote across America, among every tribe, to see how everyone felt about it. IMO, it seemed like a hyped up issue brought about by a very small group of Native activists mixed with White Progressives who want to lecture everyone on what's appropriate and what is not. If the vote comes back with a majority of tribal members saying they don't like it or it's racist, then fine, change the name. Otherwise, I've read quotes from members who like you don't care, or worse, LOVE the Redskins team, have their jerseys, and are proud of it. P.S. - I can respect that Jesse wants to do right, but he might be off here. P.P.S. - That Reagan quote is funny, but true.
I’m fine with them getting rid of the name but I wish they kept the logo and and named it the Washington warriors or something because I’m half native “Cheyenne” and seeing that strong “Indian” logo gave me pride it wasn’t an offensive logo like the Cleveland Indians

*REAL TALK: Let's clear this up real quick:* - *Redskins* = analogous to calling someone whiteskins, yellowskins, or blackskins..... so it's racist. - *Braves* = "a North American Indian warrior." or "endure or face (unpleasant conditions or behavior) without showing fear."..... therefore NOT racist. - *Indians* = "a member of any of the indigenous peoples of North, Central, and South America, especially those of North America."...... therefore NOT racist. - *Blackhawks* = "Major Frederic McLaughlin, founder of the franchise, named his team the “Blackhawks” after the US Army unit he served in during World War One, the 86th Infantry Division, also known as the Black Hawk Division. The unit was named after Black Hawk, the Sauk leader of the eponymous Black Hawk War of 1832."..... therefore NOT racist.
@@georgem3673 That's fine. It's a label. We label things all the time. It's how we identify our world and everything in it. Who labelled us as the white man? White people certainly never did.
And 7 years later, the Washington Post, which is one the BIGGEST LIBERAL publications in the WORLD, just did a poll where about 7 out of 10 native americans DID NOT find the name offensive.

The Indians have been polled many times about whether they took offense to "Redskins" and 90% said "no'. The Indians see it as someone calling you a "tough nut". If the Indians aren't offended then any one claiming it's "offensive" is bigoted. They are saying, "since the Indians are too stupid to be offended I'll have to be offended for them." Not a good look.

The Redskins name is NOT offensive! They have been the Redskins since 1932 & a Native American designed the logo for god sakes ....most of them take pride in the name so if anything it's a HUGE slap in the face to Native Americans by changing their name! they will ALWAYS BE THE REDSKINS! HTTR!!!

Jesse is by FAR the smartest guy inthe room... No doubt.
He'll no
Washington should be called the Warriors and the Cleveland Indians should be called the Natives.
In America they can name the team anything they want to if you don't like it don't watch it .
My beliefs align with this man so much.
This guy loved fidel castro... you align with that... jessie is a trader to the USA...
@@cruzintheraw a trader? What kind of trader? What goods does he trade?
@@DAMNS70 ... jessie traded his USA honor... for communist cuba... and you diego... are following this fool down the same path...
Strange way to use your freedom... but... you are free to do so...
@@cruzintheraw you can’t believe everything the media feeds you. This man is a realist that has had the opportunity to do things most people won’t and draw his own conclusions. He is a real person, unlike the politicians and or other public figures we have today. If he likes Fidel then so be it. For the record, just because my beliefs align with his does not mean that I have to agree with everything he does or says, and this applies not just for him, but for everyone. Nowadays people tend to generalize others just because they come to know just one facet of them.

Spoken like a true liberal
Jessie is a Libertarian/Independent not a liberal.
@@KingEmiya2023 He can call himself what ever he wants to but when he talks like a Liberal you have to question if he is a Libertarian/Independent in name only.
Jesse, bet you can't walk up a mountain backward. Try it in your dreams. Watch out for two claps in your closet tonight. Seems pretty scary.
Jesse Ventura makes so much sense when he talks.
.. and of course don’t forget the “frozen envelope” in ‘85 in the Ewing sweepstakes 😆
I'm a good guy and i need to talk with Jesse Ventura before i die which isn't going to be that long from now.
NBA draft is rigged....take a look at when the Knicks got #1 overall pick to draft Ewing.....they all say today, even ewing, it was rigged.
NR- Are you sure ewing said that?
You know, now, it's obvious that was a racist name, but during the time it was called that, it just seemed normal. The world needs visionaries to point out and bring awareness to issues so changes can be made.
*REAL TALK: Let's clear this up real quick:*
- *Redskins* = analogous to calling someone whiteskins, yellowskins, or blackskins..... so it's racist.
- *Braves* = "a North American Indian warrior." or "endure or face (unpleasant conditions or behavior) without showing fear."..... therefore NOT racist.
- *Indians* = "a member of any of the indigenous peoples of North, Central, and South America, especially those of North America."...... therefore NOT racist.
- *Blackhawks* = "Major Frederic McLaughlin, founder of the franchise, named his team the “Blackhawks” after the US Army unit he served in during World War One, the 86th Infantry Division, also known as the Black Hawk Division. The unit was named after Black Hawk, the Sauk leader of the eponymous Black Hawk War of 1832."..... therefore NOT racist.
Good post, except they were only called Indians because Columbus thought he was in India.
@@georgem3673 That's fine. It's a label. We label things all the time. It's how we identify our world and everything in it. Who labelled us as the white man? White people certainly never did.
And 7 years later, the Washington Post, which is one the BIGGEST LIBERAL publications in the WORLD, just did a poll where about 7 out of 10 native americans DID NOT find the name offensive. Now, I don't know if Jesse Ventura has a hint of native american in his blood, but how about we focus on the voices of native americans whose voice matter the most
I'm Scandinavian, I want Minnesota to change their name 😉
The 4bidden1
same here , the vikings should change their name too because they’re 0% scandinavian.
vikings never wore purple or horns on their helmets either.
@@KAISER-OUTDOORS Vikings fan here, sure dude I don't care change the name.
Yeah the Minnesota Scandinavians has a good ring to it! 🤣🤣
I'm offended not enough camera time on the beautiful blonde and brunette woman 👠❤️💯🤘
1:23 , brother's thinking "Wellll!"
The mascot was the proudest most respectful mascot I ever saw in my life
"I think Vince McMahon kidnapped the Dingo Warrior and sent him to area 51 to be probed by aliens" - Jesse Ventura
Come to find out years later Jesse was right about the draft pick, Shaq confirmed in an interview that former NBA commissioner David stern asked if he preferred hot or cold weather and shaq replied with hot weather of course and was then drafted to the magic
Jesse Ventura is very well spoken and bright!
He is a low iq bafoon. I am a native American living in Maryland and none of us were offended by that name. We looked on it with pride and now they took it from us.
Doesn't make what he says correct.
Who can the colour of someone’s skin be racist? America has gone mad.
Voting for The Body in 2020
Run Jesse Run!
Same here, man! We need a statesman finally in our lives, not a snake politician 😒
Me 2
If there were a 3rd party system like there used to be he would run. But he's said it before that he doesn't believe in a 2party system. "That's one more choice than a dictatorship ".
He's has no brain .
Call them the Washington Natives.
Caleb Grill if I was Indian, I think I’d be proud to be called a redskin!
Alan Thornton news flash you are not Indian!!!
Washington Turduckens. Does anyone else think the lottery is rigged with magnets in the balls???
Why is she leaning away from Jesse?
Shes afraid of the truth
She has an allergy against people that exhales truth and many TV personalities has that allergy,probably most.....Swells them up and makes their eyes bug out and all.. (their eyes bugging out and swelling comes from their anger that someone dares to speak truth in their presence)..
They should have kept Redskins, it gave them character, i never thought it was negative or racist. Now they are a joke with no authentisity........bad call.
and the name change finally happened in 2020. Washington Football Team. good grief!
God awful name. Hope they find a new one
Stupid name that only a corporate board of directors could come up with. Why couldn't they do something like Washington Longhorns, what guy doesn't what people to think they are a "longhorn"? Ha ha!
Hopefully whitey's conscience is clear now!
You wanna make America great for a change??? Make Jesse Ventura President.
maybe he should run??
Ventura all the way!!!
The NBA draft is fixed. David Stern fixed the draft so the Knicks would get Ewing. It's a fact. There are plenty of videos proving it.
The fighting Irish aren’t offended by the fighting Irish
This country would have been better if Jesse would have become president. He would have been the nice middle ground between the lunatics on both extremes of politics
Ventura is starting to look like Riff Raff from Rocky Horror
I never for a second thought thst the nba draft was rigged but after hearing the points thst he just made it make alot of sense if u think abt it
I don’t even live in the continental United States anymore. I live in the Baja…
i hear what jesse is saying and in a way he's right.
But hold a white piece of paper up beside jesse's skin --- white people aren't white as a whole
Curious to what he thinks about now that the Family of the chief who they based the Redskins logo wants him BACK. I guess it’s racist to everyone except the actual race.
Haha went to a native reserve and they all redskins fans and yet people don’t know the history of the team and where the team name came from. This is just ignorance
He is a low iq bafoon. I am a native American living in Maryland and none of us were offended by that name. We looked on it with pride and now they took it from us.
The Indians have been polled many times about whether they took offense to "Redskins" and 90% said "no'. The Indians see it as someone calling you a "tough nut". If the Indians aren't offended then any one claiming it's "offensive" is bigoted. They are saying, "since the Indians are too stupid to be offended I'll have to be offended for them." Not a good look.
The report you talk of is called the anneburg report the people who they poled self identified as native most of them were actually white people with a mythical Cherokee grandmother or some other nonsense story
@@skycollins7314 That may be so, but conversely, in all the years of "Redskins", the redskins never protested or boycotted, the pale faces were the ones claiming to be offended.
@@bugsy9007 you can see videos of Russell means in the 1980s condemning the redskins and other teams. also you call us redskin out in public you're asking for a beating pilgrim
@@skycollins7314 There were no protests or boycotts about "Redskins" and the Indians appreciate the name. It is the same as calling a guy a "tough nut". You have no idea what you are talking about. The only ones (claiming to be) offended by Redskins are pale faces.
Jesse is so right. The videos here will say things that we can't say.
The thing is..most Native Americans did not find it offensive. As the Chiefs,the Land O Lakes girl etc.
The Redskins name is NOT offensive! They have been the Redskins since 1932 & a Native American designed the logo for god sakes ....most of them take pride in the name so if anything it's a HUGE slap in the face to Native Americans by changing their name! they will ALWAYS BE THE REDSKINS! HTTR!!!
Should be called Washington Redskin Potatoes
As a knicks fan. 1985 draft had the ball magnetized for the knicks. Ewing goes to the knicks. 100% rigged.
I Am White Skinned. My friend is Black Skinned. My great-great-grandmother was Red Skinned. Bruce Lee was Yellow Skinned. I am incredibly disappointed that Mr. Ventura takes this stand on this issue. HOW SAD relatively speaking. There are NO real/genetic differences between the so called "races", it essentially boils down to cultural and cosmetic differences as in "skin color!", and guess what? my skin color is commonly described as "white"... I AM WHITE SKINNED... as in "white shirted"... SIGH!
"Well I was a navy seal.....We had seal skin....that's racist as well....BTW did you know I was governor of minnesota??"
Where TF were these "offended" tribes for the past 75 years ....?
What in the wild world of sports is going on here? Do you have any orange crush
Jessaphine bet you like the gta video game- and cinderelli- why do you hunch over like the hunchback of Notre Dame. You know that cartoon character was actually far stronger in his younger years than you in your older.
