But Native Americans are only third-class citizens, it seems, and so can be crapped upon by baseball unmercifully forever.

Major League Baseball (and the NFL) doesn't just tolerate racism against Native Americans, they actively promote it. Shame on them all.
Being from Germany we are instantly called "Nazis" if we say or do something racist. But in North American professional sports they are racist against Native Americans without hesitation. Yet I thought the human race would have learned from past mistakes.
