Idiotic virtue signaling. What will the Lakota do with this old decrepit shirt?
Dump it in the basement and forget all about it?
If you want to follow this line of reasoning, museums around the world will empty.
Which really doesn’t seem so bad.
Good grief.
Does this mean that the little kid is going to have to give the sweaty Steelers jersey back to Mean Joe Green?
Thank you for posting. Interesting subject.
I lived in OK for 7 years. New lots of Indians. And my father-in-law’s grandmother from Quanah, TX was full blood Comanche.
I have Navajo friends and know others from my time in NM 1972-1986.
I have zero Indian blood.
The chief in the 900 portrait is not an old man. How old is his grandson today, 121 years later?
What happened to the bead work on the sleeves?
Who knew bears had horns?
A new shop rag?
Better not wear that shirt when you visit the US Capitol.
now about the Elgin marbles ...
I lived in Pierre, SD in the 1950’s until we moved in 1963 when I was 13 years old. One of my friends was a full blood Lakota Sioux. One of the nicest friends I ever had. His dad worked on the Oahe Dam. The shirt belongs back at Rosebud.
I also had a girl friend whose name was Jaquita. She was named after her mother’s Lakota Sioux childhood friend.
Don’t get me started on Custer.
Now the next question is: will they be returning those human skin lampshades made during WWII to their rightful owners or descendants?
