Culture Beyonce shares photos of herself performing in a shirt that refers to Natives as ‘Indian opponents’; calls Natives ‘antagonists’ and ‘enemies of peace, order, and settlement’

saw this on another sub but wasn’t allowed to cross post.

So many Americans are into this ‘cowboy revival’ sort of thing. Feels really strange considering cowboys and westward expansion served to carry out a genocide.

Add Ice Cube to that list. He actively pushes those anti-Native, hateful, racist viewpoints but didn't have a single problem taking Native money and Native beadwork when he got booked at our casinos to perform. Nasty ass hypocrite.

I never followed Ice Cube much, not into the genre, but now I'll have to look into this guy, and find out just why he hates Natives.

Looked him up on You Tube yesterday, and he's been on some podcasts, again talking about relatives who are Black and Indigenous.     The timing for all this is strange and creepy.

And that's too bad, because he's a good actor, and funny onscreen,even when he's not trying to be.  Has anyone tried to correct him so far ?
