attention moana cosplayers and everyone who wants to cosplay moana (of all races)

So very recently I’ve talked to a various amount of people who have different opinions about if cosplaying Moana is something anyone should do, regardless of heritage or what they look like. Numerous amounts of debate has gone on about who should do what. The biggest one I’ve seen is “cosplay whoever you want, it’s cosplay!”

I’ve had a quite a few people tell me I would make a great Moana, which is why I decided to cosplay her. I do look like her, so it was nice to see a character I could identify with appearance wise in the Princess lineup. Once before I’ve been told by someone who was white that I shouldn’t cosplay Moana, so I dismissed it because the person was not Polynesian themselves. Obviously it isn’t in their place to decide.

However! @swampthing, who is Pasifika, has messaged me with concerns of making and wearing traditional garments of their culture offensively by wearing a culture that does not belong to me because I do not participate in it. I had discussed it in private with @swampthing, and had agreed that it was offensive. If you want #receipts I’ll gladly provide.

Retrospectively after this conversation, I shouldn’t have sought advice from anyone else afterwards in an effort to be able to keep a costume i had worked on. So after discussing it another friend who was part Hawaiian and actually complimented my costume, I posted a picture today of me wearing it, and @respectyoursister has called me out for posting another picture after having the conversation with @swampthing. in turn, i recognized that it was an idiotic and disrespectful move to ignore everything @swampthing said to me for one person’s opinion and for the sake of posting pictures in a cosplay.

you’re probably thinking I wouldn’t have made this post if I were not called out for it, and sure, I wouldn’t have, because I had thought I was in the okay, at least until someone came along to tell me once again that it wasn’t. so, ultimately, after being publicly called out for it on the picture itself, i’m posting this, because I made two mistakes, and it was in my error to hold one person’s opinion above someone else who is from the culture of the character you are cosplaying, who was actually concerned about the appropriative aspects of constructing and creating a traditional costume of a culture that does not belong to you, especially if that culture belongs to a people that is a small percentage of the population of the world.

No matter how many hawaiian/polynesian/pacific islander friends you have that are okay with it, if one person from the culture does not want you to do it, listen to them, and don’t blow them off for one opinion.

Moving forward, I urge everyone: if you are NOT Polynesian, do NOT cosplay from Moana. She is wearing traditional garments. They should not be treated like a costume.

I know there are a lot of black cosplayers, latina cosplayers (such as @momokurumi ) and other people of color who are not Polynesian that identify with the way she looks, and I know representation matters, but this isn’t necessarily negotiable. And whether Disney Parks chooses to cast someone to wear the costume who is actually Polynesian has no relevance either, as their habit of white washing characters and using people who are ethnically ambiguous to be their people of color in their parks doesn’t seem to be breaking anytime soon.

[gf-for-justice]

So what of those who have to in disney parks? The girls who will be auditioning to be Moana in The parks. The little girls who will dress like Moana. Will they be appropriating the culture by dressing as their heroes?

The clothes Moana wears in the movie. Although traditional will become a costume because Disney will make it into a costume.

There is a quote from lilo and stitch where nani states the place she was working at before she quits(or was she fired?) that their culture was now disgraced. That tradition became a tourist attraction.

That's going to happen here with moana's outfit. It will be made into a costume either way.

I'm sorry. But that is what's going to happen. It's a sad truth. -Mod Dipper

hippie culture is based in racism (◕‿◕✿)

[sophiedoodlz-deactivated2020090]

No it wasn’t..

[doublesslightpeppa-deactivated2]

that’s nice, but hippie culture is based in racism (◕‿◕✿)

[breakyourneck]

really though, it wasn’t. stop trying to turn everything into a race war, tumblr.

[doublesslightpeppa-deactivated2]

Hippie culture continues today in people who call themselves “yogis” and practice smudging and wear dreadlocks. You know exactly who I’m talking about. They collect crystals and tattoo themselves with eastern religious symbols and pretend they are one with the earth.

Hippie culture is based entirely on the exotification of marginalised cultures.

Hippies have a fundamental misunderstanding of the pieces of the cultures that they use (I.e. Chakras, smudging, dreadlocks, etc.). The understanding that they have of these cultural aspects stems from racist interpretations of these cultures based on anthropology (which is still a very biased discipline), but at the time of the inception of the hippie movement, anthropology was still being used to show that other races were inferior to white people. Hippie culture takes bits and pieces of these cultures that they see as being “counter” the norm which is fundamentally racist because they see cultures of color as being outside the norm which further others people of color in a western context.

white hippies like to think they’re the least racist of all whites or even not racist at all because they travel to ~foreign lands and get to know the natives~ “embrace” dreadlocks, eastern religions and imagery; they think their appropriation of our cultures and history is acceptance when it couldn’t be further from it. the whole point of being a hippy is being “free”, a better and softer word for uncivilised which is what they ultimately consider us.

and if you think people of color talking about our experiences and things that affect us is turning “everything into a race war”, then you’re probably a racist

[nuetrois]

like 100% the hippie movement was counter culture. they were rebelling against the conventional, consumerist culture while coming from well off white families. there’s a really good short documentary that touches on it idr what it’s called but it’s about the Berkeley student protests in the 60s, shouldn’t be hard to find. a lot of them acknowledged that what they were doing was just to piss off their parents - there was no “admiration” or “connection” with the cultures they bastardized.

What People should be learning from the Zamii incident

We should learn how to criticize artist in a more constructive and welcoming manner. Harassing a person is wrong. 

What People are actually learning: 

Su fans are all awful. SJWs are all awful. We should be able to draw racist and fat erasing fan art if we want to.

[poofy-queen-deactivated20160824]

woah woah okay kiddo let’s tone some things back a bit

The whole ‘getting kicked out just because you don’t like sex’ thing is such utter bullcrap. That’s practically saying asexual people don’t feel any type of negativity. People identify as asexual for more reasons than not being attracted to anyone. Some are repulsed by sex, others probably went through some abuse that made them want to identify as ace. You do realize that people are forced into therapy, are told “you’ll meet someone who’ll change you” and are raped just because they aren’t sexually attracted to people? I don’t know, seems like somethings gay or bi or ANYONE who is in an environment where anything but heterosexuality is welcome recieves that too. That being said, cishet aces ARE welcome. You don’t know what they struggle with, you don’t know what they endured. To say “no no they’re fine they don’t get any bad treatment, the ‘a’ is a lie” is just horrible

“Oh, acephobia isn’t real! uwu” look again.

Sorry if I misinterpreted any of this, but I think I got it spot on.

Teach children that this is not ok

[princess-roxxi-remade-deactivat]

Teach children that there’s nothing wrong with this

[ginzers]

I’m really not understanding why you think cultural appropriation would be ok, unless you are assuming that the girl in the picture is part Japanese.

[princess-roxxi-remade-deactivat]

Yellow face yet she’s using white makeup in the traditional style but okay.

Cultural appropriation isn’t a thing, hon. ☺️ Cultures should be shared by all means.

[ginzers]

I disagree. The makeup is clearly reflective of traditional Geisha makeup which is yellowface and therefore racist. Furthermore, the girl is wearing a kimono, a garment that has for ages carried cultural significance. Assuming that she is white how can you think this is ok? And cultural appropriation isn’t a thing? What rock do you live under? I suggest you educate yourself on the differences between cultural appreciation and cultural appropriation.

[cheshireinthemiddle]

I am japanese, in japan at this very moment. The only people who think culture shouldnt be shared are racists like you.

A vast majority of Japanese people actually enjoy other people making an effort to spread and enjoy japanese culture, and encourage it. Many make businesses in deliberately taking pictures of people in kimono. A common omiage (gift) for foreigners from japanese people is traditional japanese things such as kimonos, tea seats, shisa dog statues, ect.

And to top it off, basically 80 percent of japanese customs, traditions, and food, came from other countries. Japanese is an integration of different cultures, like america. Japan takes influences from places like korea, china, russia, and europe. If japan stuck to itself, there would be no tempura, japanese tea, tea ceremonies, kabuki, japanese bread, japanese curry, j- pop, anime, cars, or modern fishing techniques. The picture is not “yellow face” they are not making fun of asians. In fact, it looks like they put extra care and research into their work.

The only reason that you have a problem with this is because that little girl is white and you know that it is acceptable on tumblr to crap all over white people. The only racist here is you.

I live in Japan and I’d like to back up this sentiment. 

Recently a museum in Boston came under a lot of fire for allowing visitors to wear a ‘kimono’ (it was featuring a painting my Monet of a girl – a white girl – in a kimono, and the museum had replicas made that guests of ANY RACE could wear to mimic the painting, Pageant-of-the-Masters style). After protests and heated debate, the museum closed the event.

I was living in Japan at the time, and out of all the *actual* Japanese people I asked, not a single one was offended by the event. Rather, they were excited that people half a world away were showing interest in their culture, and were sad that visitors could no longer enjoy the event.

This party, though somewhat silly in application, is an attempt at experiencing and appreciating another culture. The mom who put this together is not an expert on Japan, but she did her best. She got a lot of things right: there are few things Japan loves more than tea, Pocky, and sakura. 

Where do you draw the line for who is “allowed” to learn about Japan? If the girl were of Japanese descent, would that make it ok (even though her citizenship would be the same as the girl from the photo)? If one of the girl’s parents were from Japan, then would it be ok? 

Are you only allowed to make pizza if you live in Italy? If you’re an Italian immigrant? How do we decide these things??

You can’t say you want to dismantle racism and then in the next breath make rules – based on race – for who people can wear, try, or eat, especially when the intent is obviously to have fun experiencing a culture (as opposed to having fun by making fun of a race or culture, like blackface does). 

When you tell people they can only experience things ‘meant for their race’, it totally smacks of segregation to me and I can’t stand it. As someone who (obviously) loves Japan, I say let people learn about it, let people experience it, let people appreciate it. You don’t have to know every single thing about a culture to enjoy it.

Leaked Documents Reveal Dothan Police Department Planted Drugs on Young Black Men For Years

HUNDREDS OF CASES PROSECUTED WITH PLANTED EVIDENCE, MANY WRONGLY CONVICTED STILL IN PRISON

The Alabama Justice Project has obtained documents that reveal a Dothan Police Department’s Internal Affairs investigation was covered up by the district attorney. 

A group of up to a dozen police officers on a specialized narcotics team were found to have planted drugs and weapons on young black men for years. 

They were supervised at the time by Lt. Steve Parrish, current Dothan Police Chief, and Sgt. Andy Hughes, current Director of Homeland Security for the State of Alabama. All of the officers reportedly were members of a Neoconfederate organization that theSouthern Poverty Law Center labels “racial extremists.” The group has advocated for blacks to return to Africa, published that the civil rights movement is really a Jewish conspiracy, and that blacks have lower IQ’s . Both Parrish and Hughes held leadership positions in the group and are pictured above holding a confederate battle flag at one of the club’s secret meetings.

The documents shared reveal that the internal affairs investigation was covered up to protect the aforementioned officers’ law enforcement careers and keep them from being criminally prosecuted.

Several long term Dothan law enforcement officers, all part of an original group that initiated the investigation, believe the public has a right to know that the Dothan Police Department, and District Attorney Doug Valeska, targeted young black men by planting drugs and weapons on them over a decade. 

Most of the young men were prosecuted, many sentenced to prison, and some are still in prison.  

Many of the officers involved were subsequently promoted and are in leadership positions in law enforcement. They hope the mood of the country is one that demands action and that the US Department of Justice will intervene.

The group of officers requested they be granted anonymity, and shared hundreds of files from the Internal Affairs Division. They reveal a pattern of criminal behavior from within the highest levels of the Dothan Police Department and the district attorney’s office in the 20th Judicial District of Alabama. Multiple current and former officers have agreed to testify if United States Attorney General Loretta Lynch appoints a special prosecutor from outside the state of Alabama, or before a Congressional hearing. The officers believe that there are currently nearly a thousand wrongful convictions resulting in felonies from the 20th Judicial District that are tied to planted drugs and weapons and question whether a system that allows this can be allowed to continue to operate.

Members of the Henry County Report have spent weeks analyzing the documents. The originals, secured at an N.G.O. in Canada, are being shared directly with attorneys in the U.S. Dept. of Justice Civil Rights Division, and are being made available to the lawyers of those falsely convicted that seek to clear their names.

There are two federal lawsuits currently pending by former police officers Keith Gray and Raemonica Carney against the Dothan Police Department. They will be given access as well as they substantiate their claims of racial discrimination and city’s violation of a federal court decree.

The documents serve as irrefutable evidence of criminal activity at the highest levels of the Dothan Police Department.

Beginning in early 1996, the Dothan Police Department received complaints from black victims that drugs and weapons were being planted. Specifically young black men who had clean records were targeted. Police Chief, John White, allegedly instructed senior officers to ignore the complaints and they willingly complied.

In early 1998, a group of concerned white officers from within the Police Department complained in writing about what they witnessed. This is reflected in the document below where it refers to a series of allegations that took place over 11 months before the department acted. The initial written complaint from the department’s own officers is dated June, 1998. The internal memo documents the last allegation as occurring in April of 1999. Almost a year of internal complaints by the department’s own police officers passed before Chief White turned it over to the Internal Affairs Division.

On August 27, 1999 more than a dozen officers had allegations against them for planting drugs and weapons on black men they had falsely arrested. They were each notified of a formal investigation and required to prepare statements in writing to the Internal Affairs Division. They were then tested by polygraph examination, most reportedly failed. The notification of charges reference a combination of marijuana, cocaine, and guns being planted on citizens during arrests that were witnessed by multiple fellow police officers.

All of these cases involving planted drugs and weapons were subsequently prosecuted by District Attorney, Doug Valeska, despite the written allegations by police officers that the evidence was planted. Never was any such information shared in the discovery process with the defendant’s attorneys.  We have been advised that each of these are considered felonies committed by the district attorney.  read more here

By coming forward almost a decade later after these letters, this group of officers who witnessed drugs and weapons being planted and had the moral courage to bravely do the right thing are hoping the United States Department of Justice will intervene. The want a specially appointed federal prosecutor, from outside the state of Alabama to hold District Attorney, Doug Valeska, former Chief, John White, current Chief, Steve Parrish, Homeland Security Director, Andy Hughes, and Capt Carleton Ott responsible. But most importantly, attempt to make those hundreds of young black men’s lives whole again who have been victims of the Dothan Police Department. They believe the time for justice has come.

Tough fucking shit!

If the police and DA didn’t want to end up setting thousands and thousands of actual guilty people free, then they shouldn’t have BROKEN THE FUCKING LAW.

Arguing that you’d end up releasing too many guilty people is like arguing that putting Bernie Madoff in prison for fraud is going to put a lot of his employees out of work!

No. We don’t want ANYONE to be forced to unwillingly signing up for the draft. NO ONE should be at risk of forced labor and death to benefit the military industrial complex and American colonialism.

holy shit, a feminist that actually understands that no one should be forced to sign up for the draft.

Virginia lawmakers: ‘Adults must check children’s private parts before entering restroom’

“This is what the conservative movement has devolved into,” says activist Tim Peacock.

I don’t even know where to begin with this. 

I’ve done a little research about this ‘law’ and I have to say, the fact someone would even think it is ok is disturbing to put it in few words. They’re suggesting that schools start having adults check students to make sure the bathroom they use matches their  “anatomical sex”.

The law they are proposing states that students, they’re talking about kids here man, caught in violation of this law  will be charged 50 dollars for the offence if their ‘anatomical sex’ doesn’t match up with the bathroom or locker room they want to enter. Which is their own version of a bill that lawmakers in the Hoosier State introduced saying that transgender adults would be find 5000 dollars for using public bathrooms. 

Of course it doesn’t say exactly they would check the gender of each student to make sure they are entering the bathroom the law expects them to use. Regardless of that fact, you shouldn’t have to check anyone period.

Can you imagine the things that could go wrong with this? The humiliation the children in schools would feel if this was passed. It’s degrading to anyone who just wants to be accepted as who they are. 

I’m don’t think such a bil would get passed, but nonetheless, the very idea that someone wanted something like this to be made a reality is wrong. People should be left to be themselves and not have laws telling them where they should go and who they should be.

Is this serious or? Cause if it is this is real fucked up. The Titanic sailed in 1912 so yes racism was everywhere obviously. The fact that black people weren’t allowed on the boat doesn’t take away from the fact that this was a sad sad tragedy. Yes racism is terrible and yes its bad that black people weren’t allowed on the ship but it’s still sad and horrible. I hope this is just a joke I’m taking to seriously or something.

[alwaysbewoke]

fuck no. there’s always this demand made of black people to have compassion and sympathy for their oppressors like we owe them that or something. and then if we don’t, we’re made out to be the bad guys and even badder than the oppressing white people themselves. fuckouttahere. that’s like asking a jewish person to have sympathy because a bunch of nazis and their kids died. dafuq?! and to some the comparison of racists to nazis just seem outlandish and crazy. that’s because white people never actually learned and accepted the evil depths of their racial hatred of black people. you guys think shit like this happened by accident. slavery, segregation, rape, illegal experiments, poisoning, jim crow, drug infestation, killing our kids for amusement and worse. i mean fuck, they even dropped bombs on our neighborhoods just for the fucking hell of it.

i’ve known since i was a kid that the titanic didn’t allow black people and ever since then i never felt a bit sorry for what happened to them and i’m most certainly happy that my people lived. karma doesn’t play around. 

you don’t want shitty things to happen to you or your kids? start by treating other people right otherwise miss me with the tears. don’t like that many blacks celebrate your demise? then accept that your race (YOUR RACE) has done some evil shit to not only black people but to many across the planet.

shit! you demand we shed tears for you, but please tell me how many tears did you shed for the approx 80 million natives whites killed to steal this land? or the approx 10 million africans killed to build this land? whatever.

now back to the celebration.

OP and everyone else...

There were black people on the titanic. As servants and then... Two of which who were Passengers. They weren’t AFRICAN AMERICANS or AFIRCAN but they were Haitian and Egyptian.

“Joseph Laroche, 26, a Haitian-born, French-educated engineer who was moving back to Haiti because he could not find work in his profession; and Victor Giglio, the son of an Italian father and Egyptian mother, and personal secretary to U.S. industrialist Benjamin Guggenheim.” - Huffington Post

You guys still celebrate over thousands of whites dying. Thousands of kids and people dying. And that’s fucked up. In all honesty... it’s fucked up. But I needed to shed light for you. There were two black passengers and countless black servants on that ship that died. A simple google search can tell you that. The huffington post... can tell you that.

But whatever. I’m just some white person talking. I’m not black. I don’t do research. I’m obviously lying for no personal gain what so ever.

Well it's a meme that needs to stop. Because you have no clue with the person you said that to was cis or not... And if you did say it to a cis person and they became depressed to the point where they think no one likes them cause they are cis and then they commit suicide... Who's blood would be on who's hands? their blood would be on your hands cause it's considered bullying. OH but I don't know anything. I'm just a dumb fuck that don't know shit.

no cis person is gonna commit suicide because of down with cis jesus christ

“ And if you did say it to a cis person and they became depressed to the point where they think no one likes them cause they are cis and then they commit suicide … Who’s blood would be on who’s hands?“ okaybut yknow. trans people have the HIGHEST suicide rate out of literally any demographic at a WHOPPING 41% compared to the national average of 4.6% but lm ao whenever someone brings it up all we hear is “not all CIS uwu down with hate sweetie cis people have done NOTHING TO TRANS* PEOPLE as a group”.

[gf-for-justice]

sweetie, i would like to point out that tumblr in a whole are a bunch of bullies to everyone. you protect the black lives that are killed by white people but when a black person kills another black person. it’s gone under. OR when a woman kills a man. under the radar. 

you post what you want to post and you spread what you want to be spread. You care nothing about actual people or anything. if they are certain colors, if they are certain genders, if they are certain sexes. You attack them. You full on attack them, sending death threats. 

Death Threats are against the law, and in some states in the US can get you thrown into jail if one were to report it. 

Everyone. Matters. Whites, Blacks, Hispanics, Muslims, Everyone. EVERYONE FUCKING MATTERS. NO MATTER IF YOUR CIS OR TRANS. NO MATTER IF YOUR BLACK OR WHITE. NO MATTER IF YOU ARE MUSLIM OR CHRISTIAN ALL LIVES MATTER. EVERY FUCKING ONE OF THEM. No one should ever bully someone. No one should ever harass someone. No one should ever fight someone cause of differing opinions. But tumblr does not UNDERSTAND this.

The truth is, chivalry has basically fuck all to do with women, and everything to do with horses. See, the word “chivalry” comes from the French word “chevalier,” which comes from “cheval,” which means “horse.” Chivalry is literally just “rules for if you have a horse.” This was an important set of rules to have in chivalry times. Horses were the Blackhawk Helicopters of the Middle Ages; if you had a horse, you could absolutely kill anybody who didn’t have a horse and nobody was going to say a god damn thing. The only thing stopping you was chivalry. That’s what chivalry was for. Chivalry was – and still is – basically a way of saying, “okay, I have an optimized death machine between my legs, maybe I should look out for people who don’t have one of these.” So it’s not that chivalry is specifically about defending women because women are weak. It’s that chivalry is about defending people who don’t own horses, and in the middle ages women didn’t own shit.

Chivalry Isn’t Dead, You Just Don’t Know What the Fuck it is.

Also:

“Chivalry boils down to three things: mercy, charity, and humility. Mercy means being conscious of your advantages, and treating other humans gently. Charity means giving without expecting anything in return. Humility means accepting your mistakes, and recognizing that those who don’t have your advantages aren’t your inferiors.“
