A few days after the Super Bowl, Tai Leclaire, a Mohawk-Mi’kmaq Native American, tweeted about the irony of the NFL’s slogan “End Racism” stenciled on the field’s end zone just above the word “Chiefs.” The Kansas City Chiefs’ logo and tomahawk-chop chant have long been criticized as racist and derogatory. “As a full-time writer and comedian, I’m so upset knowing I’ll never make something as funny as this,” Leclaire posted, along with a photo. His Tweet received more than 200,000 likes.
