Quiz: We know what your pop culture Halloween costume should be

Using their cultures as a costume is ignoring the genocide that built this country, and is ignoring their continued fight to protect their heritage, land, and resources, and to fight to keep the treaties that are still being broken. For one holiday, you will see these getups all over town. And then, they will vanish, never to be worn on an All Hallows Eve again. It’s easy to say it’s “just a costume”, and at the end of the night, you can take it off. But we can’t take off our transness, and we will continue having to live with the consequences of the subtle, casual hatred your costume embodies.
