== Removed paragraph == 

 I removed the following paragraph from the naming controversy section as non-NPOV; as written it clearly attempts to present as fact the writer's POV over the Redskins name.  I'm copying it here before deleting because some of it could be used in an NPOV manner in the controversy article. 

 :While this particular case is undecided, the problem with Indian names and images usage by sports teams has been recognized and documented. The US Civil Rights Commission2001 PRESS RELEASES, ADVISORIES AND PUBLIC AFFAIRS: http://www.usccr.gov/press/archives/2001/041601st.htm accessed 10/15/2012 called for and end of such usage in 2001, and the NCAA made recommendations based upon similar logic in 2005. The State of Oregon http://www.cbsnews.com/8301-201_162-57436794/oregon-bans-native-american-mascots-in-schools/ banned American Indian mascots in 2012. The problem is not merely the official image of the team, but the behavior of fans that results: non-Indian people wearing warpaint, feathers, etc.; doing chants and dances that caricature a culture that is not their own.http://www.pbs.org/pov/inwhosehonor/film_description.php The harm done was recognized by the American Psychological Association in 2005, and has been documented by studies that show that it harms non-Indians by teaching young people that such mockery is acceptable, and harms Indians by lowering their self-esteem and identification with their cultural heritage; and makes it difficult for true representations of that culture to be communicated because the Hollywood stereotypes are so visible.Summary of the APA Resolution Recommending Retirement of American Indian Mascots: http://www.apa.org/pi/oema/resources/indian-mascots.aspx accessed 10/15/20012
