" my culture is not a trend. by mycultureisnotatrend - Tumblr
mycultureisnotatrend.tumblr.com/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. Being a Native comes with a history . """
I enjoy this thread because of the positive nature and the history posted by those I know personally to be Native American, as is Spirit Dancer, and those who are not. I am not Native American, not a "wannabe" and I post and am just part of the Planet. I for one am Czech, and Scottish. Those who know me, and my child personally know I raised a Native American daughter. I come here not as a wannabe, but one who learned about my child's history and her relatives, and her culture. Not here to to be trendy, but to be a part of the humanity that we all now share.
