I
used
to
work
here
and
as
wonderful
as
the
employees
working
there
may
be
the
fact
this
store
exists
is
awful.
It
is
nothing
but
appropriation
galore.
I
was
blind
when
I
was
there.
Have
grown
a
lot
since
leaving.
Come
a
long
way
in
these
past
few
years
and
made
up
for
a
lot
of
mistakes.
And
now
follow
lots
of
wise
creators
who
have
educated
me
on
some
of
the
cultural
appropriation
I
was
missing
cause
I
was
blinded
by
the
joy
of
working
in
a
beautiful
shop.
Anyone
who
shops
here
should
take
a
step
back
and
look
at
themselves
and
the
products
they
are
buying.
A
vast
majority
of
the
brands
are
owned
by
white
people,
or
books
are
written
by
white
people.
Yes
some
of
the
products
are
imported,
but
sold
TO
white
people
who
dont
understand
the
full
cultural
significance
of
what
they
are
buying
and
get
it
explained
to
them
by
people
who
also
dont
understand
the
full
significance
of
them.
There
is
not
one
Hindu
or
Native
American
employee
in
that
store
who
is
actually
has
a
FULL
understanding
of
what
they
sell.
Idk
if
the
owner
realizes
the
appropriation
going
on
in
her
shop
or
if
she
just
doesnt
care.
A
lot
of
the
brands
in
that
shop
have
been
talked
about
by
a
creator
I
follow
who
points
out
cultural
appropriation
of
Indian
culture
all
the
time.
I
feel
awful
for
ever
having
worked
there.
They
have
shiny
pretty
things
yes,
but
unless
you
are
actually
practicing
in
the
Hindu
culture,
dont
buy
their
statues.
Also
the
white
sage
and
Native
American
stuff
they
have
is
all
from
white
vendors
for
the
most
part.
Not
cool.
AND
they
literally
sell
books
on
recycling
when
the
store
themselves
dont
recycle.
Just
a
bunch
of
BS
all
around.
