Not Stand Your Race again. Didn't know Rih's comeback would be that uneventful.

True but the distinction was made and the truth of the matter is that we just have to live with it because that's the way things are now. It's not a fantasy world where we can just UNITE into one race because mistreatment STILL happens. Often.

Why do I love every song Rih has put out in 2015?

Haven't heard her non-Towards the Sun Home tracks though. Girl needs to up them on Spotify.

All he was saying is that Lana can take that off and NEVER has to deal with the real parts of being a Native, she's appropriating it. What else needs to be explained exactly?

Again Lana's fashion choices have no effect on the actual problem, so bombing her with SJW tweets or letting it slide will ultimately have the same result. Don't you get it, IT HAS NO EFFECT, Your tweets have no actual effect on actual problems. How else can I put this. Nobody will get raped or oppressed by a celebrity dressing ethnic clothes and nobody will benefit if they don't. IT"S POINTLESS. Must I really spell it out for you?

I mean "colored people" was the term used to direct black people to their own bathrooms and water bubblers during segregation.

Minorities having something for themselves the horror

"Colored" sounds better and more political-correct than "Black" to me.

It's called awareness. Not being ignorant? Not scrutinizing a culture without having to deal with the consequences in an uninspired attempt to look cute? You really seem to be missing the point.

Also - not sure if you're talking to me because I don't tweet at Lana about this (?) but numerous media outlets report these things when they happen and it DOES get back to the artist most of the time... so you're kinda WRONG. Sorry!

It was used to describe their skin color, it never had the slave connotation before slavery.

No? There's a reason why Fair & Lovely and other skin lightening creams sell so much, white supremacy is embedded into every race. It's why someone like Aishwarya Rai (who I LOVE) is seen as the most beautiful woman in India with her blue eyes and light skin, white Latinas like Shakira and Paulina Rubio are so popular in Latin America. White features are revered in every culture.

You can't expect to have solidarity with every race when your features are inherently hated within that race.

SUCH a classic

The point is not Lana specifically. She was just an example. But you are right. I am 100% positive that Lana taking off her head dress for the fear of losing record sales has great meaning to those hundreds of women that were sexually assaulted. Yep, the really cared and have nothing to cry about now

[bluth]

The point is that Native Americans have fought tooth and nail to continue celebrating their culture in America because white people have made it near impossible to even survive as a social group. For a white woman to go ahead and cutely / edgilyyyy;P wear something that belongs to them for. No. Reason. Is insensitive, stupid, embarrassing, unnecessary and wrong.

These things have not always been commonly known. Kesha also wore a headdress once
