A photograph from 1960 of Chief Red Raider, the mascot of Our Lady of Lourdes High School, Shamokin, Northumberland County, Pennsylvania.
The caption reads:
Chief Red Raider, proud of the outfit presented by the Alumni, dances to the tom-toms of the cheerleaders.
Today, such representations of Native Americans or Indians are considered racist and unacceptable.
