Listen Non-Natives
Since a lot of you don’t know how to act here are a few basic rules for Powwows
- DONT MOVE ANY LAID OUT BLANKETS. That seat is saved, likely for an elder or the family of one of the dancers
-STOP TAKING PICTURES OF OUR REGALIA W/O ASKING.
And don’t get mad or pushy if you are told no.
-DONT JOIN THE DANCING UNLESS YOU ARE ASKED TOO OR IT IS ANNOUNCED AS AN OPEN DANCE. AND DONT DO THAT WEIRD WHITE HIPPY DANCE BULLSHIT.
You know what it looks like
We are making fun of you, and you deserve it. Learn the damn shuffle, it’s just a two-step
-NEVER, I REPEAT NEVER FUCKING TOUCH OUR REGALIA, LET ALONE PICK IT UP.
It’s literally common courtesy and sense
- IF YOU GO TO THE MEAL SERVED AT POWWOW, YOU EAT LAST.
Children, Elders, Vets, and Mothers go first, young able-bodied people after that, if you want to be known as polite and are an outsider you should as close to last as possible and not cry about it.
-LASTLY, DO NOT ASK TO ATTEND CLOSED CEREMONY
You are either invited or not, our cultures are not for consumption i don’t care if you paid for a ticket, dont walk into somebody’s lodge or tipi for even so much as a smudging unless someone asks. Those are our sacred spaces our ancestral homes that we no longer have access to regularly, except in these spaces. This shit isn’s about you.
Don’t be that Settler.

I love being sent memes and people being like “this is you” or “this made me think of you”. Even if the meme is roasting me thank you for thinking about me ily.

Wow wtf HIV/AIDS was discovered by Flossie Wong-Staal, an Chinese-American woman, and she’s the reason the HIV test even exists. AND THEN she invented the molecular knife that lead to treatments for HIV/AIDS. And she’s STILL ALIVE. We don’t hear about the contributions of Women of Color enough, my word. Madness.
