The Washington Redskins Name Change

I have read the Huffington Post on the Redskins name change controversy. The overall argument was about the name Redskins being offensive to Indian people. In the  article someone said that "when you have kids in schools who are getting harassed, who are feeling a lack of self-worth because they themselves have become a mascot for someone else. My questions about this topic are do they have enough information to change the name of the team? Do you think they should change the name? Is the name really a act of racisms towards Indian people?
