I can't find the original comment I just replied to you on in regards to this photo,
[link]I mentioned the artist had said in the description that the model herself was part Cherokee. I just looked and it appears he's taken that out of the description. But I swear it was there a few hours ago.
I didn't intend to argue with you either, I'm open to discussing that topic and not getting all worked up about it.
I just think there's a balance.... maybe my perspective is different because of the Native people I know in the community here. I'm on the Northwest coast of the states, my father is actively involved in events held on the reservations here. I've met his Native friends and hung out with them and they seem like very relaxed people.. maybe some of them would feel conflicted about that image. And I suppose I can understand where they are coming from.
I looked at that image from an artistic view point and appreciated it simply for it's beauty. But some people see it differently. I guess that's all I can say about it.
