K, so done with seeing Anne Hathaway in the native tag. Among other trash. “Distant Native American roots” don’t fucking count. If you can’t even say what you are, Nation, tribe, clan, don’t claim. Fucking sick of the posers. The only reason I ever say “I’m Native American” is because the person I’m speaking to is too ignorant to understand “Hopi. Akimel O’odham. Yaqui.”
To be fair,...

Also, I fucking hate when white people go, “Well, I was TRYING to see your point of view, but since you’re so mean, I just don’t care anymore.” “I wanted to learn to change, but your attitude just showed me that there’s no point.”
Bitch, stop.
You roll up into our spaces and conversations, uninvited, giving input that nobody asked for; not knowing what the hell you’re talking...

you can't form opinions on racism, because you are...
codenameddork:
Oh man, reading this made me laugh so much. Solely because it’s such a racist thing to say.
wait so you’re saying white men are victims of racism because people of color tell them to shut up and listen instead of blabbing on about things they’ll never experience?

Ain't nobody asking for white people to accept us
babybutta:
eclecticspectrum:
How idiotic is that line of thinking?
How arrogant?
A white person wearing things that belong to POC is acceptance?
Who the hell asked for it?
You what acceptance is?
Respecting where people come from and what belongs to them.
Putting on some kente and waist beads does not mean that you respect me. Knowing that they are not yours to try on when you see fit...

When I tell you it’s racist to dress up like an Indian, it’s not because I want you to feel worthless or that I don’t think you deserve to be alive or something. It’s because I want you to stop making my race and I feel degraded down to something as insignificant as your outfit.

“ugh i wish i lived in the 50s and 60s”

Truth.
I want to make a separate blog...
blurred-speech:
Just for insulting all these hipsters in headdresses. All I want to say is “You look stupid and this picture is terrible.” But I’m not going to do that. Because I can say that all here. YOU LOOK STUPID AND YOUR PICTURE IS TERRIBLE
Fun fact: I was inspired to finally make this blog after losing a ton of followers because I couldn’t stop reblogging hipster headdresses for...

This blog is made of epic fail. →
I dunno about y’all, but I plan on spamming their submit box with pictures of actual ndns. At the very least, raise a little hell at them?
breakfast-tea asked: Hey I'm the person who's photo you reblogged saying I was being racist. No, I'm in a show where I play Pocahontas. I'm doing what my director asked and it's just theatre. You need to get your facts straight before you start accusing people of racism. I have no issues with Native Americans and the joke isn't that I'm dressed like one, It's that i'm a boy...

The comments on this article about “Cultural Appropriation” in a left wing paper give me hope for Britain
Yeah and Hawaiians don’t get royalties on flowery beachwear either. The person who makes the money is the one that spots that people like certain styles then invests a shedload of money on the basis of those skills in creating actual items that people actually...

Does anyone have a red indian costume i can...
kennie2:
would be really great
in a size 6/8 UK
or age 14
or does anyone know where i can buy one cheap?
“Red indian” is a racial slur, and racist costumes are icky. I kindly ask that you pick another, less offensive, costume.
My Identity Is Not A Costume for You To Wear!

For the white people who still don't get it:
ladyatheist:
Look, if you see a post where someone is questioning why white people do racist shit and the only damn thing you can think to say is “but I’m not like that”, you’re part of the god damn problem. Why? Because you have just successfully derailed the conversation and made it all about you and your feelings. By saying “but I’m not like that” and declaring how “hurt” your feelings are,...
digatisdi asked: Yo, I'm not sure but this looks like a whirlwind of appropriation (I found it in the #Native American tag, along with these: #sun dance #spiritual #fakir #fakir musafar #musafar #suspension #o kee pa #oh kee pa #black and white #piercing #hanging #body mod #body modification #native indian #apache #suphi #sufi #sufee #suefi #suephi) zeadmods[.]tumblr[.]com/post/23163342172/

Quote of the year
zjemptv:
“It’s weird how the definition of ‘ally’ has gone from ‘people outside our group who genuinely support us in our quest for equality’ to ‘people who will withdraw their support if they and their feelings aren’t centered in the discussion’.”

How much do you want to bet that if they saw footage of animal abuse, and footage of the shit PoC have to deal with every day, they’d be more affected by the animals.
I am proud to say I love animals more than humans. Which is a reason why I am a veterinary student and soon to be an owner of a rescue. PoC aren’t being ripped apart for their skin to be sold,...
