Re: Have you ever been driscriminated?

Although outright discrimination does bother me, I think the kinds of prejudices I find the most dangerous and offensive are the ingrained kinds people aren't even completely aware they have. Like, on the matter of race and ethnicity, being Native "American" in America, it's a constant struggle to keep your identity as a normal human being intact. It's disturbing because people still watch movies like Peter Pan and consider the blatant stereotypes portrayed in them to be OK. But then there's the whole hypocritical political correctness that I have to deal with: like, if the "Natives" in Peter Pan were black, people would be up-in-arms. The entire movie would have to be remade to omit that scene. But since it's just the Indians, who cares?

Yea I find that annoying, like its not okay to be racist to blacks ( Im not saying racism is ever ok), yet its ok to be racist towards other ethnic groups. Natives gone through alot worse than blacks,yet there still treated like crap.

Racism/discrimination is wrong to any race. Stop identifying one race over the other.

The entire movie would have to be remade to omit that scene. But since it's just the Indians, who cares? Then there's just the annoying historical inaccuracies of films like Pocahontas. Every time I see a clip of that movie on TV or wherever I can't help but think, "3/5 human being." But very few people seem to recognize just how disparaging idiotic cartoons like that are for Native people. They'd rather downplay them as silly shows that aren't meant to be accurate, just entertaining. Sure. Kind of like minstrel dances. And the whole perception of indigenous peoples adopted through the stories portrayed in movies like that are consequently flawed by default. And then I have to deal with ignorant bigots who think that because I'm an indigenous person I must smoke tobacco and hum gibberish around a drum by firelight.

The movie was made in the 1950s. Sure, it was racist. But, I mean, it's Peter Pan.

And, as far as Pocahontas goes, yeah, it's historically inaccurate. But, it's more based on the story of Pocahontas, not exactly the facts of Pocahontas. And the film isn't racist in the slightest. It did a marvelous job portraying situations from the point of view of many different people. It wasn't meant to be a documentary.
