“I am a racist white girl stealing sacred objects from cultures I am privileged over. I am also presenting a hypersexualized image of native women, with additional use of Eurocentric ultra-thin beauty ideals. I am contributing to the rape and sexual assaults on native women daily. I am disrespecting cultures whose genocide I benefit from.
I AM THE FACE OF WHITE FEMALE PRIVILEGE.”
Sums up white hipsters using appropriating head dresses.
Where do people find their little fake war bonnets though? I have not seen one in my entire life. They must go out of their way so they can culturally appropriate. How cute.
They’re a bit easier to find…
There are some Natives who do sell items that are sacred and not meant for everyone. One seller, in particular, would sell things that are copied from sacred items and would brag about “I don’t care as long as I make money. They are the ones who look stupid.” I do not like this behavior and it doesn’t help our stance. But that doesn’t exempt the people who buy them. If you do not know the meaning of what you are buying then why buy it? It doesn’t make you look spiritual or cool, just racist.

… and yet another discussion of racism and cultural oppression turns into a white liberal circle jerk where they pat each other on the back and tell themselves that “intention matters more than the results” and “it’s not appropriation, it’s sharing” while talking over PoC who are saying “that’s not how that works at all, and no, the fact that you don’t mean to cause harm doesn’t mean the harm ceases to exist”
We don’t tolerate blackface so we think we aren’t racist. This is redface, and it’s racist, and it’s harmful. Speak up.
