I dropped her off this morning and saw girls (and boys) wearing grass skirts, some of them with coconut bras too. I’m not sure what else is going on, but it doesn’t seem very respectful of a native culture that we have seriously fucked over. Would they have a “Native American Day” and let kids come in wearing feathered headdresses?

Or am I reading too much into it?

    I’m hardly missing your point, I just think it’s ridiculous. Purporting that something is associated with another culture, even if untrue, can certainly be offensive. It’s like watermelon and fried chicken for Black people. Would you claim that is inoffensive?
