A woman of the Cherokee nation addresses the daughter of the governor of Oklahoma, who recently posted a photo of herself wearing a Native American headdress. Makes for powerful and informative reading... Back in the day, white people had the power to take away our culture, and now they have the power to wear it however they see fit. These are our images, our cultural symbols, yet we are completely powerless to have control over them. It may seem extreme, but the best way I can say it is that your wearing of the headdress is an act of violence that continues the pain of colonization.
