Thirty Year Cleveland History of the Iconic 'People Not Mascots' Logo Artist: David Jakupca Acrylic on Canvas 22" x 28" 1992 Signed Lower Right The 'People Not Mascots' Logo is meant to be a Native American protest caricature of the racists Chief Wahoo logo of the Cleveland Indians Baseball team that lost to the Chicago Cubs in the 2016 World Series. It was originally designed and painted in 1992 by David Jakupca at the historic ARK in Berea Eco-Museum for the Committee of 500 Years of Dignity and Resistance along with the Lake Erie Native American Council (LENAC) incorporating elements of the Theory of Iceality on Environmental Arts. The 'People not Mascots' Logo has drawn criticism from Cleveland sportswriters, fans and local businessmen, but received immediate acceptance among humanitarian, religious groups and Native Americans. The Cleveland 'People not Mascots' Logo gained international popular attention when it was it exhibited by ICEA at the 1993 United Nations World Conference on Human Rights held in Vienna, Austria. It is the most widely known anti-racist logo and has changed the way people view the trillion dollar international sports industries by sparking the social justice movement in professional sports.
