The name of this business is using a racial slur. I agree that the name needs to be changed. There is no excuse at all for a business to continue w such a vulgar name.

Yes it is appropriation. Yes it is a racial slur. Yes it is offensive. No, there is nothing right about any of it.

“Squaw” is a derogatory term, demoralizing a native female. Please, as a non-native female, rename the boutique to something more appropriate like “The Spunky Texan” ....

This is about respect and caring for others. You are hurting people who have been hurt enough. Please Do the right thing, change the name and lose the focus on indigenous people.

I am not native, but come from mexican background, and no one should have a racial slur used for a "cute boutique" name. Its obscene and the fact they are unwilling to change whem they know they are in the wrong is infuriating. If they didnt intend to offend anyone, and honestly were apologetic, this petition wouldnt have to exist.

This is the 21st century. We are older and wiser and more respectful of the people and races we share our space in the world. Join the 21st century. Choose a name that is not disrespectful.
