I find the name of your shop offensive. I live in Northern Minnesota and understand that "sqaw" is offensive to my Native American friends and neighbors. Please find it in your heart to find a new way to designate your business. Thank you.

I am neither thin skinned nor a squaw!! You show your ignorance and white privledge by using this racial slur. Generations of our people fought long and hard for acceptance into the white society and will not put up with your stupity and calousness. Stop using a term that you know nothing of where it came from. You have plenty of words in the english language to choose from that would better suit your boutique.

We get it, you thought it was cute. It's not. It is offensive, and your deliberate refusal to acknowledge that only reinforces the idea that you enjoy the controversy. Do the right thing, rebrand it.

I have to believe this was out of ignorance. Please do the right thing and change your name. If it insults another group of people, isn't that enough of a reason to change it?
