"Go Native" event in Oakland

Anybody in Oakland know anything about this?

eta: the original poster/flyer are still up here at tribe.net. There's also a post about the statement from AIM West, with plenty of "no *we'll* define whats really racist not the native community" in the comments.

ndnz, cultural appropriation, public posts

of course there are stupid people everywhere, but did they really think no one in oakland would object? i'm assuming the organizers/club people are part of the minority of white liberals who pat themselves on the back for living somewhere so "multi culti". my sister's roommate there had all this new agey/appropriative jewelry and kitsch on her walls.

what is "The Native American Church"??

The NAC is a legit org, its seized upon quite eagerly by these types because they are legally allowed to use peyote in their religious ceremonies.
