Ke$ha somehow got prettier….

hahah man my headdress is more awesome than I remember. if ke$ha looked like jodi I might actually like ke$ha.

im sure native americans living on reservations who are fighting to hold on to what few cultural symbols they have left are thrilled that this perfectly aryan girl is wearing a deeply significant religious symbol and posing in it for the internet. fuck. that.
not trying to start a fight or anything, but how is this acceptable? what’s going to be the next fashion hit, burkas or bindis?
maybe it’s because i grew up in oklahoma, the state that is the direct result of the treatment of native americans and one of the only states in the u.s. that is required to teach their state history, but this shit makes me so mad. maybe it’s all my native american friends. maybe it’s the time that ive spent visiting reservations and observing the religious rituals. it doesnt matter what it is- fashion and the pursuit of hipness is not an acceptable reason to parade around in highly meaningful cultural wear, especially when the wearer is from the culture responsible for the oppression of said previous culture!
have some goddamned common sense people.
