Her eyes… the shape of them. There’s some Asiatic in her genes somewhere. I actually ran across this blog post because I was searching for some information on her heritage.

You make good points. Each man for himself in America is starting to fray at the edges if you ask me. We just one generation from realizing this won’t work forever.

Nice post.

Sincerely,
A Reformed Individualist Wimp

“I just think that injustice for anyone is injustice for everyone.”

Well said. That is wisdom.

In other words, millions of kids have stereotyped Indians as belonging to the Plains cultures of the distant past. And millions of adults have taken the “iconic symbol” to mean that most Indians belonged to the Plains cultures of the distant past. Was that your point, Leslie? If so, you made it effectively.

See “Team Names and Mascots” (http://www.bluecorncomics.com/mascots.htm) and “The Big Chief” (http://www.bluecorncomics.com/chief.htm) for more on the stereotype you so enthusiastically embrace.

It is more along the lines of wearing mud cloth. Blackface is not a representation of black culture at all and the fact that you would compare the two is a bit trite. I see where you want to go with this argument but your focus and presentation of issue is bad. Really bad.
