CLEVELAND INDIANS

The Chief Wahoo logo has already been removed from all uniforms, but loyal fans still support the racist imagery. The Defend The Tribe campaign will educate fans to improve the local perception of Native Americans.
 

JERSEYS

In May 1830, the Indian Removal Act exiled all native tribes from their Ohio homes. In order to educate fans of Cleveland’s Native heritage, every home series will have team jerseys honoring Ohio tribes.
