so *sniffs* today in indigenous art class, we we're talking about how with our metis dot art we couldn't call it / sell it as metis dot art, but you could if you were metis, like the difference between cultural appreciation and appropriation. And this girl in my class *exhales* stands up and says "im part of the wolf clan, can i call it wolf clan art" and when i say i cringed. I mean it was like a full body convulsion like my SOUL felt that.
And the teacher was like try and include your clan then. AND IN HER ART SHE DREW THE MOST GENERIC MOON SYMBOL AS HER CLAN SYMBOL IM GOING TO CRY
