★Rylan GreggorDisgusting and deeply inappropriate. This organization has been staging performances where children are dressed in stereotypical, inaccurate "costumes" and encouraged to “pretend” to be Native Americans as part of their programming. Reducing a real culture to outdated, craft-store-style props and roleplay is not education. it’s disrespectful and harmful. As a nonprofit that claims to promote education, they should know better. Cultural sensitivity, historical accuracy, and respect should be the bare minimum. Instead of continuing harmful stereotypes. Unacceptable and should be shut down. Their "land acknowledgement" statement on the website is nothing short of a slap in the face of those they harm.
