Identify why american indians have proposed changes to toponyms for landmarks on oregon maps, and explain how this issue relates to the sense of place. describe the challenges faced by those who wish to change toponyms.

American Indian groups have pressed for name changes because the terms used are offensive to them.

Explanation:

In Oregon, there has been an ongoing controversy because many of the toponyms contain the word "squaw," which many Native Americans say is a slur. Calling the term offensive, nearby tribes have asked for name changes, and state law is on their side.  An example of a group pressing for changes is the Confederated Tribes of the Umatilla Indian Reservation.  This issue relates to a sense of place because locals who opposed the name changes argue the Native American populations pushing to change the names do not live in the area, but that is because they have been forced onto reservations and subject to systemic discrimination for hundreds of years. An example is the site that was formerly called Squaw Peak in Oregon. It was finally changed to Taowhywee Point but the bureaucratic process is slow and there are still close to 120 place names with the word squaw in Oregon.
