Sowers added that she d recently done considerable learning, reading and listening regarding the topic.
She said her opinion was influenced in particular by testimony the board heard from Alex Red Corn, an Osage Nation citizen who is an assistant professor and coordinator for indigenous leadership at Kansas State University in Manhattan.
Members Sean Crittendon and Diane Liebsch were in the minority as the USD 409 board voted 5-2 in 2018 to keep the Redmen and Braves mascots.
Crittendon and Liebsch again voted late Monday in favor of doing away with those mascots.
They were joined by board members Sowers and John Eplee, who had voted in 2018 to keep those mascots; and Stefanie Gardner, Sally Berger and Brandi Ross, all of whom have joined the board since 2018.
