Person: My lNative American step-mother used to hang
dream catchers on our walls, but she passed away. Is it still appropriate for me to keep it?
Ruby Richardson: Is she from the
Ojibwe tribe? Have you studied the history of the Ojibwe people and the
dream catcher? If not then it’s not meant for you and it’s cultural appropriation and I don’t care that it was a gift from your deceased stepmother.
