Can a black guy feather dance?

What can I say? I was bored.

I wonder what Hammer and the old Michael Jackson would look like in feathers and a rocker???

I guess you'd need to add a rhinestone glove and parachute pants to the regalia, wouldn't you?

I was bored, too, so here's my new look for Hammer...more traditional than fancy, but couldn't find pix that would line up right.

Because, just like white society, native society also has it's racists. I know from personal experience in my family, and NOT proud of this attitude and belief either.

Cool Picture ;-)

Why would my answer to this one be any different from my answer to the same question in white? Smile.

Que sera sera, it depends on the person, fate, destiny, not whether they are black or white. I'm sorry whenever I hear more negative prejudice against part black Ndns than part white Ndns. Why can't we just concentrate on 'positive prejudice' then?!

O.K., here's one:
Maybe they can do the wardance, but I bet they could be great grassdancers. Smile. But should they do those dances?

My opinion:
When they seriously want it from all their heart, when they show patience and endurance, and it's not about being self centered and about showing up...when it has a meaning to them, then maybe some day they are invited to be taught all these things. My 2 ct.

Talking Can a whiteman jump?

I would like to say to each his own. In other words the majority of the NDNs running around scream Native Pride!! Yet they dress like a gangtsa, pants hanging of their a**, bling hanging from their neck, hat worn every which way but straight. So why can't a person of another color dance in a powwow. After all it's just a powwow.
Ceremonies included, if a person has a clean heart and open mind, why can't they attend ceremony. I believe in diversity. I'll be quiet now
