[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m personally ok with it but you have to decide how you feel. We are all living on land we violently took from Native Americans and we don’t let that bother us enough not to do it. [/quote] This is the truest statement in this entire thread. If you complain about plantations, you better complain about every inch of soil you step on day to day. Cause guess what, you’re just as guilty. [/quote] I think if you're a white person holding a wedding at the site of the Battle of Little Bighorn, sure. Or anywhere an Indian massacre took place. Or a sacred site for Native Americans. Or somewhere that is still a bone of contention between Native Americans and the whites who control it. But come on. A plantation house where slaves were being whipped and sold off from family members 150 years ago? That is a tangible space where suffering happened. How can you be so dense? Would you hold your wedding at the 9/11 memorial? Why not?[/quote]
