“No.” That’s the blunt answer Washington football team president Bruce Allen gave today when asked if the team would consider changing its name as it looks for a new stadium, ESPN reports.

Currently, the team plays in Maryland, used to play at RFK Stadium in D.C., and practices and trains in Virginia. They’re exploring options in all three places for a new stadium, but if the controversy over their name is a deal breaker, then Allen says they won’t move forward.

That will especially be the case in D.C., where numerous local politicians, as well as Interior Secretary Sally Jewell, have opposed the team’s name and mascot.

In a statement, Change the Mascot spokesperson Joel Barkin had some harsh words for Allen, saying that since he’s been “[r]elieved of day-to-day responsibilities as General Manager he must have a lot of free time on his hands to double down on this racist moniker and try to figure out what to do about Native Americans returning donations from the team.”

Barkin added, “unfortunately, Bruce Allen, team owner Dan Snyder and the Washington team fail to understand that you cannot buy acceptance of continued racism.”
