Hi, I'm a Native American, and I'm fed up with the appropriation of my culture by those desperate to be trendy, hip, ironic etc. picturemethin asked: Please refrain from wearing jeans, and causal tops. That's being disrespectful to my culture. So is this tumblr actually. I have 1/8 Sioux in me, personally. Other members of my family are full blooded Cherokee or half. I find THIS offensive because you are saying that your culture is reserved for your self and only those you deem fit. This is the melting pot of the world. Don't disrespect others, or your own tribe. Oh, and speaking English is part of my CULTURE and I'm fed up with you using it.
Your argument is tired. I’ve answered questions exactly like it at least 4 times now.
There are others, but I’m too tired to go find them. Give the blog a read before you get reactionary and defensive. You’ll find that there’s some real thought, substance and rationality behind what I have to say.
