I really enjoyed watching the film “More Than A Word” this past Friday night. It told the story of the Native American community’s efforts to change the name of the Washington R*dskins football team. While the film documented the many setbacks they faced, I found it inspiring how the community was so passionate about making this change. No matter the setback they faced, they all set aside their individual differences and many came together as a community to support each other and fight for what they believe in. It is inspiring to see a group of people that persistently advocate change!

Endless possibilities
I agree! It was neat to see so many people come together for a cause they are passionate about, and to see others joining them in standing up for native traditions and beliefs. I think this type of social movement should be a wonderful example for so many other aspects of society that need changing as well.
