Look, it sucks to be called out, but you don’t have to double down on this. Just accept that you’ve made a mistake and see this as a chance to do better. We’ve all made mistakes before - what counts is how you handle it when learning you’ve been wrong and what you will do to be better. This is a good chance for you and you should take it. Changing your name would help you to not actively be seen as a racist, which I think most people would want? This is your time to listen and learn and do better.

It’s kind of hard to understand how anyone would think this name or business was all right. It’s not.

This is so racist, what a horrid thing. People need more education to understand how ignorant they are concerning Indigenous peoples.

I signed this petition because it dehumanises native women .White women will not swap a day of their privelege to be native, so why dress up as one for fun?

She is ignorant of facts or misusing this sad brand to bring attention to her culturally misappropriated products. Stand up and come up with something smarter quick.

This name dehumanises native women. Please stop using these terms and adding to the burden of native women who are going missing or murdered at alarming rates. White women stop wishing for something you are not because you would not swap a day of your life to live in the red woman's shoes would you?

The name of the company shows very poor taste in the issues of indigenous women everywhere. This is a chance for this white woman to show respect for using a culture to support herself that is not hers.

Watching a non indigenous person make money off of a racial AND sexist slur is disgusting. She should be sued, not petitioned.

Who in their right mind would allow the name of the business to be legitimate.

You need to understand that this is inappropriate and degrading to my culture. Might as well go as black face for Halloween..

When you're being told that what you're doing is racist, derogatory, harmful, the worst thing to do is argue and refuse to listen and learn
