[QUOTE="LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan), post: 940151, member: 70842"] I think cultural appropriation has been overused and has therefore lost a chunk of it's meaning on the whole. Wearing a weave - Not cultural appropriation. Using it for marketing of another culture to gain money = Cultural appropriation. Exeter have profited from the culture of another culture without giving anything back to it. As for the positives to the chiefs name and brand care to list an example? Are the chiefs educating people on the history of the native Americans? or are they playing up stereotypes? As said by others though the name isn't really the issue more the side stuff and marketing on top of it. Also maybe start a rugby program in NA. (Although I guess that prob wouldn't go down very well currently). [/QUOTE]
