⚠️PLEASE READ!⚠️ October 31st marks the celebration of Halloween, an opportunity to engage in social activities with friends and family. However, it is essential to acknowledge that dressing up as a Native American or Indigenous person is inappropriate and culturally insensitive. Wearing traditional regalia as costumes for entertainment or mockery is harmful to our society, particularly when teaching children. This behavior constitutes cultural appropriation, not appreciation, as many designs hold profound sacred significance developed over centuries. We will continue to fight to honour the legacy of our ancestors who fought to preserve our rights, culture, and traditions. Supporting Indigenous peoples means refraining from wearing our regalia as costumes and discouraging others from doing so.
