Rugby club criticised over logo and accessories

The Exeter Chiefs have come under fire for their Red Indian theme - which leads to fans wearing head-dresses and warpaint, and brandishing inflatable tomahawks.


The criticism of the rugby team's come from a lecturer in American history at Southampton University, Dr Rachel Herman.

She's accusing them of stereotyping Native Americans and trivialising the historical violence against them by white colonists.
