      “spiritual” white people are literally just stealing aspects of indigenous cultures while indigenous ppl are too busy fighting to survive to partake in their ancestral spirituality

      If white people pay Indigenous people to teach them about their spiritual practices, thus allowing Indigenous spiritual leaders to focus on traditional life amongst their people, how is that stealing, let alone preventing Indigenous people from keeping their traditions alive?

      this is a great question! a lot of the time white ppl don’t pay Indigenous people to teach them, instead learning from other non-Indigenous people. this also assumes that money is equivalent to our spiritual practices, which it isn’t.

      My community travels to Indigenous villages, with their welcome, supports them, follows their spiritual direction, shares their direct teaching with web stream events, sells their crafts and art, and returns the money to the villages so they may continue to live as they choose.

      good for u. white people have your own spiritualities that your people have been practicing for millennia. white people should go and learn about those and leave Indigenous communities alone.

      Maybe you "should" respect my right to choose my own spiritual leaders and practices.

      your right to steal practices from Indigenous cultrues? u were offended by my post bc it applies to you. you don’t have the right to take what you want from Indigenous practices. either listen to Indigenous ppl when we speak, or remain a colonizer

      Now you are being ridiculous (again). I am not stealing anything. Also ridiculous: telling people their spiritual practices should be determined by the vagueries of genetic heritage when the practices themselves are tied to the land one exists with. Go ahead, should me again.

      Nope. You don't get to cherrypick what you want to benefit from (spirituality, a connection to OUR ancestors) in indigenous cultures if you aren't also experiencing our hardships (poverty, racism, discrimination, theft of lands, theft of culture) with us, parachute colonizer.

      Your genetic heritage is vague, your culture is vague. We have a strong connection to ours and for many, it could be the only thing we have passed down besides some stolen artifacts housed in a museum. Get educated or stop arguing.
