<p class="MsoNormal"><b><span style="font-size:16.0pt;font-family:"Arial Black",sans-serif">OK. Chancellor Jones is bringing in on April 17 two Establishmentarian Law Deans who are going to argue that Chief Illiniwak is protected by the First Amendment to
the United States Constitution. It will be a real dog-and-pony show. These 2 Law Deans know absolutely nothing at all about the tremendous psychological harm that Chief Illiniwak has inflicted upon our Native American Students, Faculty, Staff and Community
Members. I doubt very seriously they will even bother to meet with any of them to hear them out. Just an Administration set-up for Chief Illiniwak. fab<o:p></o:p></span></b></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif">Dear President White:<br>
<br>
You and the Board of Trustees must eradicate anything related to Indians<br>
from the sports program: "Fighting Illini", "Oskeewowow," the TomTom beats,<br>
the fake Indian Music from the 3 in 1 march and elsewhere in band<br>
performances , the war paint, the feathers, the tomahawks, the Illiniwak<br>
Logo, etc. In addition the University of Illinois must hold onto the<br>
Illiniwak Logo and not transfer it to the White Racists and Bigots on the<br>
so-called Council of Illiniwak Chiefs where they will continue to<br>
perpetrate this desecration of Indians forever . You must also indicate<br>
that you will vigorously prosecute anyone who violates your Trademark to<br>
Chief Illiniwak. You must terminate all licenses for Chief Illiniwak. And<br>
you must clear this racist Illiniwak garbage out of all University of<br>
Illinois Buildings.<br>
<br>
Little Red Sambo is finally gone--no thanks to you, the Board of Trustees,<br>
the Chancellor, the Provost and previous Board Members, Presidents,<br>
Chancellors and Provosts--except for Nancy Kantor whom you all summarily<br>
ran out of town on a rail for doing the right thing for American Indians.<br>
But now you and the Board of Trustees and the Chancellor and the Provost<br>
must concentrate on getting rid of all elements of Little Red Samboism from<br>
this campus. Based upon prior experience, I will not hold my breath. But we<br>
will keep coming after you all until you do the right thing for American<br>
Indians.<br>
<br>
Professor Francis A. Boyle<br>
