Welcome to Cleveland

On the website that Welcome to Cleveland was posted on the first thing you see is a display of the Cleveland Indians mascot. Next are multiple demonstrations of other backgrounds just on the Indian face. This to me seems extremely wrong. Even if it wasn't meant to offend any race or ethnicity it does. It categorizes different people and put them into stereotypes. For example the model that was supposed to be the African model had horribly stereotypical features. Everyting about the demnstrations of different backgrounds sent off the wrong message.
