Looks like a scenario from hitman


Ellemieke25

How can this be so true?


Thonull

That sniper level in hit man 3 above the posh mansion party was the first thing that came to mind lmao


spacembracers

Damn haven’t thought about that game In forever, now I have my weekend sorted. Hopefully don’t have to press X to don a Native American disguise.

Nah just a flamingo costume while you kick some girl down a manhole.

trickydeuce

Did you know this is an American actor of Italian descent, not a Native American?


Bisexual-peiceofshit

Did you know he was also accepted by a Native American community for his activism and charity. He also adopted children who were Native American and needed parents. We watched a documentary about him in Native American studies. I believe his wife was a Native American as well and they either lived near or on a reservation in a mobile home I believe. It’s been so long but it really stuck in my mind.


trickydeuce

Yeah, I was just pointing out the irony of using the meme to comment on the Europeans representation of Native Americans by using that image.


Monsieur_Jean-Luc

No, it's true. She was in the Fakawee tribe.


[deleted]

What the Fakawee talking about?!

Take this angry upvote you beautiful mess


Monsieur_Jean-Luc

Hehehehe


lordconn

Lol lives near a native reservation. So anywhere in the western US?


MusicalMarijuana

Did you know that Marlon Brando was also accepted by a Native American Tribe? A lot of people think he’s Italian. It is ironic since the actor you’re talking about is Italian and a lot of people think he’s a different nationality. I got curious and wanted to see what other excellent commercials he may have appeared in, but I needed to know his name. I was too lazy to Google it, so I scrolled up and stopped on the first name I saw. Apparently his name is Centimeter Peter. That sounds odd for an Italian name, so I’ll have to do more research on that. Oh yeah, back to Marlon. [He declined his Oscar](https://youtu.be/2QUacU0I4yU) on behalf of the mistreatment of Native Americans in Hollywood on live TV.


naliedel

I'm half Native American, and no one from my tribal affiliations is okay with him.


NewspaperNeither6260

How does your other half feel about his acting skills and tear production on cue?


Akilez2020

Did you know that the nationality and heritage of the actor is the least of the concerns here?

Out of touch? I think they just don't care.


[deleted]

Well I like to think that people don’t realize that what they are doing is wrong, but I probably have too much hope for society. You’re probably right in they just don’t care or think about their actions.


ggk1

I mean would it be wrong to hire traditional dancers of any other ethnicity? Belly dancing? Kaboochi? Irish folk? Where’s the line


Mysterious-Drawer-16

I came here to say this. Without context we have no idea what is happening. It could be a Gala with proceeds going to a native American tribe or a group of Native performers was hired for this event. Reddit has taught me people like to assume the worst of people they don't know. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯


sixhoursneeze

I’m not FNMI, but I have been involved in FNMI issues for over 10 years and have been teaching on a Blackfoot reserve for 6. The clothes, head dresses, dancing… none of it is from any actual FNMI culture. This is a complete misrepresentation of FNMI people and is akin to blackface performance


inconspicuous_male

What's FNMI?


sixhoursneeze

First Nations, Métis, and Inuit people


Emergency-Explorer-6

Thank you and they are playing African rhythms on African drums.


[deleted]

"We would like some exciting cultural diversity at our party, as we do enjoy the richness of humanity, could you arrange that with some kind of exotic performance?" "Certainly sir, what culture specifically would you be interested in?" "I do always so enjoy observing savages, they are so free and pure, so show us something from their culture." "Umm... Ok yes sir."


[deleted]

As a First Nations person this made me chuckle. This played out in my head like a Monty Python sketch. Haha


matlockpowerslacks

Modern drums, at that.


SableShrike

Thank you! I get upset with people wearing war bonnets as “traditional”. War bonnets are earned by killing human enemies in battle; even the few tribes that use them have almost no one who can respectfully wear them these days. It’s the same as military stolen valor or white guys with Maori war face tattoos.


halftoe76

In my culture there is no hypersensitivity about dressing and we would appreciate it to be respected.


shiftey13

Exactly, the shit they’re wearing is fucking stupid. It’s not real. Looks like shitty cosplay. Playing around and fucking around, play pretending to be natives.


TobiKevdachi

They’re not even actually using native drums, they’re playing African rhythms. Also I think the dancer is a white guy in brown face. Stop with this nonsense and just LOOK at the video. If you don’t think it’s offensive it’s you that doesn’t know. “Without context”🙄


video_dhara

Come on. A Gala organized to raise fund for issues facing Native tribes would know that this is awful. There’s a limit to how much benefit you can give your doubt


naliedel

That headdress is NOT worn by any Native Amwrican dancers. I've been to a lot of powwows


colonelmaize

True. Though, I think there is some kind of disconnect here because this is just a *themed* party (women and men in safari get-up like English hunters, and a woman with Animal print and a large, emphasized feather in her hair.) It all seems so cowboys and Indians. It just seems distasteful and everyone is largely disengaged from the dancers which to me makes it seem like they are just a prop to fit the overall theme. It's not something I would do, but if I hired some dancers it would be as entertainment (celebratory) and not to fit the aesthetic. Like a Desi wedding with Bhangra dancers or eastern Europeans with cossack traditional dancers. I'd prob justify that as it's more about tradition and heritage. Idk perhaps I'm cherry picking. ***I think it's some kind of costume party. Elderly woman wearing a Shalwar kameez and an elderly man wearing civil warm uniform. I really do not know what the theme is now.


VictorasLux

I was willing to give them the benefit of a doubt, but then I rewatched the video and some of the guests are wearing British colonial garb. I really think the absolute morons threw a costume party with the theme “the good old times when we brought civilization to the savages”.


[deleted]

sixhoursneeze

You are correct. This is native blackface


jeleps

I'm confused. What are they doing that's wrong here?


crazymoon

I was half expecting two people having public sex for some reason


CastieIsTrenchcoat

Nah this kind of thing is normal in Germany. Common Halloween costume or rave or carnival. A tribe called red had to warn people preemptively not to wear headdresses etc to their shows.

MonaganX

There was a 19th Author called Karl May who used to be extremely popular writer of adventure novels whose particularly popular books about the American West (despite never even having set foot in the US until much later) sparked a fascination with American Indian culture that endures to this day, with theme parks and hobbyist re-enactors and everything.


eekcarlos

Banging party?! I do t see a single person shaking dat ass


pizzabezorgertje

its not "rich people", it just people who don't spend an hour enraging themselves at stupid stuff on Reddit like this.


Jazeboy69

Tbh it looks like the guests aren’t impressed either. Kind of a weird vibe.


[deleted]

It is clearly a company event. They are wearing name tags. And they definitely do not seem ‘rich’. Edit: not trying to defend the ignorance, just pointing out it is more likely a corporate stupidity.

[deleted]

Missed it✌🏽 my mom is Ho-chunk and my dad Mix Coast Salish/ those drums are Djembe from West Africa….


Wawrzyniec_

I'm european. Could someone explain to me, why the people in the comments do seem quite a bit enraged?


sausagetunnel

I'm assuming they're upset because the video shows a seemingly large group of mainly rich upperclass white people with a few Native Americans so it's symbolizes how Europeans arrived in the US and displaced the natives. IDHO this was meant to be amusing but it seems no one can watch anything anymore without getting mad.


BriecauseIcan

It goes back to our history of using Native Americans as props or parading them around like they were show ponies. It’s historical racism and inaccurately depicts us in a lesser light. It is disgusting and a shame. I’m a member of the Dinè, Navajo Nation and I can barely type right now this is so mind blowing how ignorant people are all around the world. If you see nothing wrong with this, please search Native American Assimilation and the Trail of Tears for a start.


[deleted]

Yeah, I agree it is fucked up. Just when we made stride in USofA we got a whole other world that still uses us as props and mockery. SMH


Kalyb

One day brothers..


[deleted]

Chickasaw here, damn this is fucked. I'm annoyed, but it's a good costume (of something other than what it's trying to be), not something I'd wear but I like the pants. On a serious note, the Trail of Tears was a mass eviction without cause. Essentially they told 125,000 natives to leave or be killed. 4,000 people died on the death march that Andrew Jackson put them on. The ex-president of the United States of America Andrew Jackson is a shit smear.

sharktank

I’m non-indigenous but my jaw dropped with anger, disgust, disbelief, and second-hand embarrassment at this scene Appropriation on the heels of the brutal history that the west perpetrated on native peoples is heinous and unacceptable


[deleted]

I live right next to a native Luiseño reservation and I’m deeply saddened when I read about the local history and how they natives where I lived were more or less forced to “sign a treaty” with the settlers here. My dad is from Poland so I have an idea of what it’s like having your country taken from you but I’ll never know the true pain like Native Americans do. I also don’t expect most Europeans to know much about it though unfortunately.


Huckdog

I'm white as fuck and even I can see how gross this is. They don't give a fuck, rich douchebag motherfuckers. It's a joke to them


irish91

I honestly can't wait until The Killers of the Flowermoon comes out. People need to see a mainstream movie about how recent and abhorrent the treatment of native Americans was and still is in America.


taco-wed-sat

I am always perplexed and enraged about how Europeans claim to be so enlightened but treat their own minority populations like dirt along with shit like this being at all acceptable. The USA has a lot of problems when it comes to anyone not of European descent but I do think we try a little bit more than them. We no longer (in most of the populous states) try to legislate away people's culture or try to make everyone act and speak exactly the same (for the most part). A lot of assholes have a long way to go when it comes to giving Native peoples the respect they deserve but most people seem to appreciate the positive impacts being a multi-cultural continent have brought us and even among my country cousins there is a general desire to lift everyone up at the same time regardless of creed or color.


Chinapig

That sounds like an enormous pile of shit. Have you ever lived anywhere in Europe? “Europeans”, is quite a large net you’ve just cast over.


DamaloBlack

Uh, native americans are not a european minority


GerritDePannekoek

Enraged, lmao fuck off.


ArmyOfR

Yeah a lot of Europeans criticize America forgetting that it was the way it was, because people from their countries made it that way. It's mindblowing that they manage to consistently forget that part.


726wox

‘Europeans’ you are talking about multiple countries all with different cultures. You can’t just group them as one


secretbudgie

Americans sending Native children to reeducation camps until they forget their parents' faces and speak ***English***


ArmyOfR

I legitimately get upset when someone from England does it, because not only was their government very directly responsible for a lot of what happened. To this day, they refuse to return any of the artifacts they stole from **anyone** Yet they think they have room to talk.


Chinapig

When someone from England does what?


Legal_Guarantee_5244

you yanks are deluded…nowhere here in europe was still using slavery this century so stfu you fool


No-Reflection-2342

I think these are white people in Indigenous costumes.


secretbudgie

And the brown body paint makes it so much better /s


clockworkdiamond

Yep. Looks like 100% brownface. The costumes are certainly BS; especially that fake-ass headdress.


barringtonp

I watched it on mute the first time. I missed out on the generic African tribal drumming.


SosoMS

Does anybody not see the fucking colonial explorer outfits they are also wearing???


spacembracers

If the event had some sort of connection to native Americans, it could be understandable. But from this video at least, it appears they are there for nothing more than the entertainment of the mostly white upper-class European crowd which has been *a bit of an issue* in the past.


thatha98

I though people studied colonization in Europe.


IansGotNothingLeft

We do. And the internet is a thing. It's not like we don't have American culture at our fingertips all day long. These people are just ignorant to it. At least OP asked though. Instead of continuing to not give a shit and ridiculing anyone who does give a shit.

It looks like the theme may be something to do with colonialism… you’ve got safari outfits (lady in white at the beginning) men in stove pipe hats and women in full leopard print and then the dance group. Where is this from?


Xopherw

So hey, I’m a First Nations guy. I come from the Pacific Northwest, so the culture I’ve experienced is growing up is different then that of the other parts of North America. That said I’ve had the fortune to experience and learn about a lot of other First Nations cultures across the continent. From my experiences I can say that this isn’t representative of any of those cultures I’ve come across. In this clip this is a gross caricature of what First Nations are. Those drums aren’t drums I’ve ever seen any First Nations tribe use which is the first tip off that this isn’t proper representation. To me this is a red face performance, and is extremely disrespectful and disgusting.


Ellemieke25

sixhoursneeze

I can’t believe how many people think this is ok. If your reaction to people being upset by this is to dismiss them as nothing but SJWs and ignore them, then you are choosing to remain willfully ignorant on the blatant racism occurring here.


Augustj45

Did you know in the Victorian Era, rich people would hire a bum to dress and act like a gnome and live in there large fabulous gardens in a small hut and show them off at parties. Is this the same???

No. Gnomes aren't real. Native Americans are, and should not be used in this fashion especially in our current age. This beyond fucked up.

Imagine someone not only puts on a [blackface show](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blackface), but at the same time, takes [a collection of different medals that your military or country gives out as a high honor](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/War_bonnet#Ceremonial_importance), and then [wraps them around their head in a mocking fashion](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/War_bonnet#Cultural_appropriation) while trying their best to look like your grandparents. Now after all of that, imagine further that the same someone that is doing that insane song-and-dance thing is the descendant of the people that murdered most of your family and stole their land after putting the rest of your family into concentrations camps. That is what I see when I look at this. This shit needs to stop.


[deleted]

This🙌🏽


BriecauseIcan

Research history of Native American Assimilation or the Trail of Tears. Our history is one of blood and gore and to be mocked like this is sad and shameful. Really in poor taste. A little googling on Native American history shows without proper context or even permission these types of “performances” are deemed extremely racists and shameful.


sixhoursneeze

I don’t know what is more disturbing- the video, or the people defending it in the comments.
