Marion Barry and I Arm-in-Arm, Eye-to-Eye
By Jamie Mottram | June 22, 2009
“I think [the Redskins name] is degrading and disrespectful. This happened in a time when you didn’t have that kind of attitude going on…you know, an era that went on that should have been changed to another name …
“Now we have to figure out how we can get the Redskins back in the District of Columbia. I think it’s going to be very, very difficult. For one, Snyder has a long term lease, he’s invested millions of dollars in his enterprise. He’s making money, and to come back to the district is my view wishful thinking, even though I’d like it to happen.” — Mayor Barry, talking to Hogs Haven
