Mascot Madness
Americans United for the Separation of Church and State believes a Massachusetts school’s use of a Crusader at its mascot may violate the constitutional boundaries between church and state.
In a letter to the Groton-Dunstable School District, the AUSCS said the cross on the mascot’s uniform is inappropriate and the Crusader is a bad idea because it conjures “an extremely violent and religiously intolerant time, and it strikes us that this is not the imagery a public school should be using to represent its student body.”
