"Trail of Cheers" (Daily Show's segment on "Chief Illiniwek")
"Trail of Cheers" is what the Daily Show called their segment on UIUC's decision to discontinue use of "Chief Illiniwek" as its sports mascot. Here is a link to the segment. http://www.comedycentral.com/motherload/?ml_video=86244
The Daily Show's satire is amazing. I think they really captured in that little segment how crazy the entire chief situation was with regards to an overwhelmingly white majority was telling Native folks what was and was not racist. Thanks for posting this.
