The Spunky Squaw Change Your Business Name

Change the name

This is an unacceptable name and you should feel deep shame for using it. I urge you to immediately change your name and apologize for the harm you have caused.

Change the name! It’s offensive and derogatory. How can anyone find it acceptable?

When we have leaders with beliefs like our ACTUAL Klan Family Member president and BBBernie, this will be the way of our world

Don’t use racial slurs in your business name.

This is a derogatory name..

This name contains a foul racial slur, and it's not okay.

Offensive!!!!

This is a vile name.

This is totally unacceptable. Call it the Spunky Woman, that covers all women period. What a shame this woman has such disrespect for the Native Women.

Sad little girl

Sadly this still has to be addressed.

Get rid of it

The English word Squaw is an ethnic and sexual slur, historically used for Indigenous North American women. Use of the term, especially by non-Natives, is offensive, derogatory, misogynist and racist. The term "squaw" is now universally offensive due to its use for hundreds of years in a derogatory context. The word "squaw" is offensive because of usage that demeans Native American women, ranging from condescending images (e.g., picture postcards depicting "Indian squaw and papoose") to racialized epithets. At best, it is similar in tone to the words "Negress" and "Jewess," which treat non-white women as if they were second-class citizens or exotic objects. The name of this shop is highly problematic and I hope that you realize the pain and discomfort it causes and rename it something that does not demean an entire racial group.

Unacceptable. Do better.

please change the name

This name is so inappropriate, and the owner's been made aware of this and has refused to change the name.

Please change the name of your store to one that doesn't dehumanize Native women.

Please change the derogatory name, so disrespectful to Indigenous People.

Stop being such a dick
