[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You couldn't just google "racist halloween costume" and answer this one yourself, OP? http://gawker.com/5672914/is-your-halloween-costume-racist/ http://www.teachforamerica.org/blog/your-halloween-costume-racist Nearly every link posted by that irate and ignorant PP fails the test. An exception, "English Nanny," is Mary Poppins without having to pay Disney for the title. This is why a PP told you that the costume you've selected isn't an accurate depiction of Pocahontas. This really isn't that complicated. [/quote] From the very first link: [b]Possible exception: You are going in a large group that includes Peter Pan, Wendy, and Tinkerbell. Then you're a specific person, Tiger Lily![/b] [harem girl is out] [b]You may, however, dress as the main character from I Dream of Jeannie. [/b] So OP's costume choice is acceptable according to those "tests" -- her daughter wants to dress up as Pocahontas. [/quote]
