Native Americans grapple with Chiefs Super Bowl celebrations

Native Americans are bracing for what they say are racist traditions as the Super Bowl-winning Kansas City Chiefs embarked Wednesday on a victory lap with a hometown parade. The team won their championship in Arizona, where tribal reservations make up at least a quarter of the land base. This past week, there has been a complicated mix of delight for the NFL involving Native and Indigenous cultures but disdain for appropriation. Chiefs fans don't always adhere to a team ban on using war paint or wearing headdresses. The team was greeted in Kansas City by fans doing the “tomahawk chop."
