weetz:

SO A ‘SPIRITUAL JEWELLERY MAKER’ ON NY INK GETS A ‘NATIVE WOMAN’ TATTOOED ON HER

‘SMUDGES’ BEFORE SHE GETS IT DONE, WITH SAGE. SHE IS NOT NATIVE, SHE IS NOT AN ELDER.

SAYS SHE ‘CONNECTS WITH MANY CULTURES. INCLUDING NATIVE AMERICAN CULTURE.’

SHE IS NOT NATIVE. THE TATTOO IS A STEREOTYPE. I AM SERIOUSLY ANNOYED THAT A NON NATIVE WOMAN WHO CLAIMS TO BE A ‘SPIRITUAL LEADER’ JUST BURNT SAGE AND ‘SMUDGED’ ON TELEVISION. HOW FUCKING DISGRACEFUL. APPROPRIATION AT ITS BEST.

tattoo shows are full of people on some new type of bullshit.
