Well, you know what this thread is about Native American looking girls. It's cool that she's part Native and that's she's accepted by her Native side (I assume and hope), nothing wrong with that. But there's a lot of Native girls that don't grow up having enough examples of traditiional Native American women in the media and that severely affects their body image and self-esteem. This girl you posted, if you didn't post she was half cree, I would've guessed she was fully black. Nowadays everyone and their mother is part Native American. And if we're going to take that into consideration the whole damn world would be posted in this thread. Posting girls that barely look Native American is contributing to the erasure of Native American girls akin to some white person wearing a headdress claiming their grandmother was Cherokee princess. There are plenty examples of black models and actresses, as there are plenty of white and asian women in the media but NOT enough Native Americans/Aboriginals women to look up to. And given that this can be a very sensitive topic for us Natives you should be more aware of that. It's a sad fucking day when a Native American girl wants to see examples of her own race and she gets flooded by images of black and white girls.

Didn't know she was half Cree. I thought that was her name XD Also, it's hard to tell when she looks nothing Native American.

I'm Native American (Oneida) and she's straight up black. She might have some Native blood on her but thats it. Sorry.

Loving the curly hair shots

True but the photography of candid shots vs. the BTS selfies is ugly.

I know. I reposted some in with the new ones just in case any were missing.
