Re: [sudo-discuss] Dia de los Muertos fundraiser: is happening?

Yes, i understand that people want to don the costuming of DDLM. That is exactly part of the problem. Groups of privileged parties co-opting what is a sacred holiday not of their own culture. In that google image search you have a vast variety of white women dressing up to be "sexy" or spookyglam without any real ties to the culture, and very few images of hispanic people celebrating the holiday in the same costumes. This has been an on-going problem with non-cultural DDLM celebrations for decades now. It would be aggravating to see sudoroom add to that kind of cultural colonization by privileged groups.
