Dressing children up as Disney's Moana this Halloween is racist, according to one parenting blogger.
While parents should also think twice about letting their brood dress up as Elsa from Frozen because her character promotes 'white beauty'.
Writing in her popular blog Raising Race Conscious Children, parent blogger activist Sachi Feris urged parents not to dress their children up as characters from backgrounds different to their own as it is 'cultural appropriation.'
Although many would see the strong-minded Moana as a perfect role model for their child, Feris said it's racially insensitive and risks parodying Polynesian culture.
Describing her own discussions with her five-year-old daughter, Feris said: 'Moana is based on real history and a real group of people.
'If we are going to dress up a real person, we have to make sure we are doing it in a way that is respectful. Otherwise, it is like we are making fun of someone else's culture.'
The parent, from Brooklyn, New York, revealed that after her discussion about 'cultural appropriation' with her daughter, the young girl decided to go as Mickey Mouse instead.
The blog has attracted almost 100,000 shares on social media and attracted a string responses from other bloggers since being published.

Will this nonsense ever stop?
perhaps when we throw hissy fits about them straightening their hair, lightening their hair, and basically doing a hundred other things they are accusing white folk of.
That means The Wookie doesn't get to culturally appropriate

No more tweezing the Unibrow.
Like Al Jourgensen said -
Every Day is Hallowe'en!
Good grief, I had Elsas of every ethnicity come trick or treating the last several years.
I even had some little mermaids in the past. Should I have lectured their parents on culturally appropriation/insensitivity to fish?
I think I said to one young Mother,jokingly, something about cultural appropriation when her Pocahantas came to the door.I was so happy to be met with a blank stare, and a “What’s that?”
I’m assuming that a black boy dressing up as Elsa is perfectly OK as a celebration of diversity.
And no Marcel Marceau, either. Thanks Altura Ct..
Let kids be kids. The chronological ‘adults’ in the world clearly don’t have their heads on straight, so let the little ones have fun and ignore the craziness while they still can.
If you have an ugly child can they wear the Elsa costume?
The little gay snowman is also white. Let’s leave it to the feminazis, the racists and the fags fight over which character is appropriate as a halloween costume and enjoy the entertainment.
It will only stop if whites make it stop. Whites must collectively stand up and push back - make it stop. However I am not so sure that whites have it in them anymore to do so. For the most part whites are so browbeat about race they let some of the most egregious anti-white crap go on.
And that leads to the question: Where does it ultimately go?
“Sachi Feris urged parents not to dress their children up as characters from backgrounds different to their own as it is ‘cultural appropriation.’”
My own children are Japanese and American - I’m so screwed.
The lack of reason and logic is creating despair in the culture of the United States and anywhere else it is found. All this has it's genesis in the evil desires found in the hearts of those who take even childhood dreams away in search of some kind of power for themselves. All is based on hateful envy of one kind or another. Frances A. Schaeffer wrote extensively about what was happening to our culture, beginning in the second half of the 20th century. It began with the Philosophers and stair stepped down through Art, Music, General Culture and into Theology. Now it is just a mess of insanity and chaos with only brutality and bullying as a force as we saw yesterday in the madness of Washington D.C. Fewer and fewer of us believe in the “God who is there,” and we will continue with the hope for His protection of his children who still exist and function on this earth. It is so sad that there are those whose whole existence is based on trying to divide and conquer.
Oh, how gender fluid — her *daughter* decided to dress as Mickey Mouse. Of course, not Minnie Mouse.
“Rodent Appropriation!!!”
Raising Race Conscious Children, parent blogger activist Sachi Feris
nope. not an activist. A bathanging crazy sadistic person who is intentionally trying to inflict emotional pain on others. To the point where the child only felt safe as an animal, and a small animal at that.
Leftists just can't help themselves, everything .. EVERYTHING is political to them
Ah yes, the 64 dollar question. Civil war, of course. The rat bastards will never stop. It might take some bumps and bruises, and some missing teeth, to get these ass hats to back off. I wish it were different, but thats reality.
Their lamentations would be a bit more valid if they would quit appropriating white culture, like cars, electricity, phones, indoor plumbing, etc. All they are doing now is to piss off everyone around them by acting like spoiled, rotten, entitled, obnoxious little snowflakes. I am suffering from a mighty case of Liberal Fatigue.
