Your business name is offensive. Please educate yourself on indigenous history before appropriating it for your own profit.

This is modern day racism at its finest. As a young indigenous woman I am appalled by the use of this derogatory term.

The name of this pathetic attempt at a store is the most racist, offensive, culturally insensitive & hurtful thing I have witnessed in recent years. SQUAW is a racial & sexual slur against 1st Nations / Indigenous women. So to have an entitled white girl, with no Native background or connection, use this as her store name...is beyond offensive and is NOT to be tolerated. This is hate speech and racism. The store owner has been very rude and abusive towards all us Native women and men who have tried to educate her on why this is simply not an acceptable name for a store. She and her "models" are now attacking us Natives online calling us an ignorant "squaw gang", and they DO mean it in a derogatory way. Brooke Loren Adams first says she did not mean "squaw" as on offensive word, then turns around and attacks us, mocking us, with the SAME WORD. This store and this racist Brooke Loren Adams do not belong on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram or any other social media platform. Enough is Enough. #IdleNoMore

There are so many creative ways to run a business that don’t use historically harmful words! Be respectful please ladies, you got this!

Her business name & attitude is an insult. She needs an attitude adjustment, that’s my response for her behaviour for her business.

I find this store name ignorant and intolerant of what is appropriate for today. The store is on the wrong side of history and their clothes look like trash. I’ve worked in fashion for over ten years and the name is wrong and their items look cheap.
