Mich. minister registers 'Redskins' name
THURSDAY, OCTOBER 10, 2002

A Michigan minister has incorporated a nonprofit organization under the name "Redskins" in an attempt to stop its use by others.

Rev. William Stein of Baptism USA Ministries believes the term is racist. A state consumer official said the effort isn't likely to succeed.

A local school district was using the Redskins name but has halted its use for at least two years pending a review by a court or the Michigan Civil Rights Commission.
