It’s really too bad that you didn’t do a little research about the deragatory meaning if the word sq*aw before naming your store. If you had, you could’ve saved yourself much trouble. Just as you wouldn’t use the N-word or sp*c in a business name, the word you chose has historical meaning and very real emotional trauma for indigenous people.

Your behavior and attachment to being openly racist is pathetic. You've been confronted by numerous First Nation groups and people. Change this ridiculous name, now. (Based on your comments, I'm sure no one would argue with #UppityWhiteTrash.)

How in 2018 is this happening and why would she say the word in question in such an awful way but claim to have never heard of it....legal action speaks louder than facebook messages

She knows what she's doing, all her talk is bs. "Squaw" is a derogatory word to our people. Change the name if you speak honestly.

This word is derogatory to our aunties, mothers, sisters, grandmothers that has been co-opted and allows for stereotypes that often lead to violence, rape and murder of Indigenous women. It does not mean spunky!
