CHANGE RIDLEY’S MASCOT!


CHANGE RIDLEY’S MASCOT!
The Issue
For years, Ridley School District’s mascot has been The Raider, a title accompanied by an image of a Native American.
This image is a caricature of indigenous people, and pairing it with the term Raider, which means thief, perpetuates negative stigma. It is time that Ridley School District changes their mascot image and title to something that is not racist.
With the help of your signature, we can show the school board and administrators of the district that we as students will not be silent to this racism any longer.
