One Little Indian changes name to One Little Independent Records, due to racism issues

A great little indie label One Little Indian - home to Björk, the Sugarcubes, Olga Bell, Cody Chesnutt, and more - has changed its name to One Little Independent Records, Flood Magazine reports. Label's founder Derek Birkett decided to change it this week after receiving an “eye-opening letter from a Crass fan” that made him feel "equally appalled and grateful to them for making me understand what must be changed”. He apologised "to anyone that has been offended by the name and the logo“ and admitted he recognises "now that both contribute to racism and should have been addressed a long, long time ago”. Birkett is making donations to organizations such as Honouring Indigenous Peoples Charitable Corporation and the Association on American Indian Affairs on behalf of the label.
