A tipping point for Washington, D.C., football team's name

A decades-old controversy over the name of the Washington, D.C., football team has reached a tipping point.

Amna Nawaz reports and talks to Washington Post columnist Kevin Blackistone, who is producing a documentary on Native American mascots in sports.
