MLB came under scrutiny in October 2021 after Atlanta Braves fans did the infamous 'Tomahawk Chop' during the World Series. The arm-waving gesture, which is accompanied by a chant, has been viewed by some as being demeaning towards Native Americans.

You’ve gotta sell tickets every single day to the fans in that market. And there are all sorts of differences between the regions in terms of how the teams are marketed." Jose de Jesus Ortiz@OrtizKicksCommissioner Rob Manfred says the Native Americans in the Atlanta Braves’ region are essentially OK with the Braves. Even if that were true, does #MLB have an obligation to be respectful to all Native Americans?

The Braves' statement read: “The Atlanta Braves proudly elevates Native American culture and language on a continuous basis. Our efforts are ever evolving, and always in partnership with the Native American community. "We firmly believe that the strength, courage, and resiliency of all Tribal Nations should be honored and esteemed by Americans every day.” An article written by Stephanie Abstein on Sports Illustrated explains the history of the celebration and why it is so offensive.

The 'Tomahawk Chop' is disrespectful because it portrays Native Americans as "caveman-type people" who “aren’t intellectual.” Cleveland Guardians once received flak for their offensive nickname. They had been known as the Cleveland Indians since 1915. Due to the backlash they received, the team changed their name to Guardians in 2021.
