Meet the Junior Colonists, the unique mascot of Anaheim High School in California This mascot is definitely one of a kind, featuring a person dressed in traditional pilgrim attire, complete with a musket and leaning on a big letter "A" [ICON_A]. The name "Colonists" was chosen back in 1921 to honor the city's early German settlers who tried to start a wine colony in Anaheim. Despite some controversy, the students voted to keep the name but decided to change the mascot's imagery to make it more appropriate. Now, the school is working on a new look for their Colonist mascot while also committing to teach more about Indigenous history and the city's own past. It's an interesting blend of history and modern sensitivity 📖.
