this indian headdress malarky

It would be ever so nice if somebody could find a way of justifying wearing a headdress without at the same time being an ignorant racist. Though marvellous on fashion terms, whenever I put one on pangs of guilt riddle me as I ponder the religious/cultural significance of the garb. It feels like I’ve just blacked up, or graffitied a church.

Listen to your conscience! Talk to some Natives. Listen to what we’ve got to say! Hang out with a few of us, we can be pretty fun. It’s not all doom and gloom.

We appreciate you taking the first step.
