TO START: See the Manny, sign a (different) petition. The current Winchester Sachem is a racist and outdated mascot that does not represent our town as the accepting and progressive place that we aim to be. By coming together to listen to the complaints of the Native American community and rebranding, we will enhance the quality of life for everyone here. Many people look up to Manny, and he is a symbol of unproblematic good in the world. A change in mascot is long overdue, and Winchester should be on the forefront of the inevitable transition away from racist mascots in America. A unique mascot like Manny would help distinguish our town and bring us together as a community. Manny’s representation of unity and justice would enhance our town, and make our sports teams stronger than ever. This is a change that needs to happen, and soon. Sign and share (and sign and share some more). Let’s change the world, one Manny at a time.
