ATLANTA BRAVES
Braves officials in July announced they are not going to change the team's name.
However, the team said it would discuss the tomahawk symbol on the jerseys and then tomahawk chop fans do at games.
Some have called upon the team to rebrand as the Hammers, especially after the death of Hank Aaron. ("Hammerin' Hank")

KANSAS CITY CHIEFS
The Chiefs said they won't change their name, but they banned fans from wearing headdresses and Native American inspired face paint.
That hasn't stopped Indigenous people from expressing their frustration with the name and tomahawk chops. Protesters went to Super Bowl LV in Tampa, Florida, and requested the team change its name.
