Take Action

"Native American history is American history. Only by acknowledging the past can we work toward a future that we're all proud to embrace."

    — Deb Haaland, Secretary of the Interior

We are currently working on a multi-action strategy for change in Pennsylvania and will keep you informed.

Connect with local and state representatives

In 2019, the state of Maine passed sweeping legislation banning the use of Native American mascots, names, imagery and motifs from public schools. With outreach to our PA representatives, we can bring this movement for racial justice for Native Americans and the end of systemic racism within our PA public schools to the spotlight for future legislation efforts.

Support A Petition

We are joining forces with other mascot removal campaigns throughout PA. View these campaigns and see how you can help by signing their petitions, sharing their petitions reaching out to their school boards.

Voice Your Support for a Legislative Ban of Native Mascotry

Find and contact your local representatives to help bring racial justice for Native Americans to the front lines and make the systemic racism within our PA public schools a priority item. Ask them to support Rep. Chris Rabb's bill to ban Native mascotry in the Commonwealth's public schools
