For sure, using appropriation to mock a culture is racist.
I just don't think a white girl braiding her hair, because she wanted to braid her hair, is something that needs to be blown up.
If someone wears a feather in their hair, just to be cute, and go to a music festival, who cares? Do your thing.
Now, don't wear a feather in your hair, and then go imitating a stereotype of Native Americans, that's racist.
