Like ya’ll spend so much time calling out white people for it that we actually start paying attention and then when we try its suddenly “so embarrassing” like yeah it wasn’t the case with this but how were they supposed to know what?? And now we all know some really interesting things about the shoot too??? like this person did not do a bad thing by asking if this photoshoot was appropriative????It’s bad because the question starts out with the assumption that it already is appropriation, asking for proof that it’s not instead of trying to find out why it would be.Exactly. Their and your first thought was to assume it was offensive and wrong. Guilty until proven innocent. The assumption that they were wrong with no evidence to support that suggested that you just wanted to be angry. And it costs $0 dollars to mind your own damn business.I suspect the ‘evidence’ consists of ‘she looks white’.Even though plenty of Native folks look white. I like to use Tiio Horn as an example.You like to use a Half-Mowhawk,Quarter Scot, Quarter German as your example of “…plenty of Native folks look white.” ?I’m not saying Native people can’t be white, but dude, this is a horrible example to prove your point.If she’s half-Native genetically and still looks that white, I think that’s actually supporting my point. In fact, that’s a lot higher than the standard many US tribes accept to claim ‘Native’ status, though it varies in Canada.You didn’t read my post, did you? I didn’t say it didn’t support your post, I said it was a bad example to support your post. Being 50/50 mixed doesn’t mean you are going to get 50/50 of those traits. Mixed people can vary, based on your logic we could use Obama as white people being dark skinned.I’m mixed 50/50, my sister and I look nothing alike despite coming form the exact same parents. So even in the same family, it’s a RNG madhouse on how you look. So personally, looking at this, it’s not impressive to the main point that people should, and I agree with it, should mind their own business when it comes whether someone can or can’t do something. -- source link
