Warriors

Really like this show and maybe it's because I'm a teacher although not in the US.

Was thinking about what anyone else thought of the school Mascot being a First Nation person, is it really that common in the US? I was a bit uneasy about the scene where the Percival learners were smashing a piñata effigy of a Brave Warrior. I think if something like that happened in a commonwealth country it would cause headlines.

Then again US high schools have mascots that are Minutemen and I'm sure effigies of them are also made. Although I do see the merits of this scene as it demonstrates the lack of respect Percival has for North Jackson, I'm just curious if there is a mood in the US for changing mascots? Not necessarily racist ones, such as the much cited NFL team but generally speaking.
