It's called violation of the 1978 religious freedom act. Congressional law.
Correct.
Farmington is hiding behind rules, but laws supercede rules.
If it's personal property and not offensive, then what is the issue. The cap looked really nice so, I'm at a loss why the school decides they can take it away. It's her property and they have no right to it. Shame!
We own our cap and gowns days if not weeks before graduation, i paid for them before. I agree with the student. The teacher petty
I almost didn’t walk because of this crap, Class of 2013 Farmington NM. Same school too, sad to see they’re still the same
This is TOTAL disrespect!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Never, ever, ever touch someone else’s feathers!!!!!!!!! They are very sacred to each Indigenous individual!!!! I stand by this graduate 100%. FHS we wait still for an apology. Every Native students pays for all the renovations with ur school!!!!!! I personally know how much each Native student gets ur school. And it’s a lot!!!!!!!!!!!! It’s like we stepped back in time when we were forbidden to speak our language, practice our traditions and surrender our regalia!!!!!! Enough with the disrespect!
It’s her graduation, she’s on the way out anyway. just let her do her thing.
I stand with y’all, my Native American cousins
Y'all? Ew kay
msimpson5317 Ew kay?
Y'all ...
My mom beads grad hats for the native students. Luckily my school allows native students to have their grad hats beaded. My mom saw this video when it first came out she was pissed off she said that if that had been me she would’ve flew down there and would’ve started yelling
Replace the school board with Native Americans and then replace the superintendent an principal to better reflect the diversity of the community they live in
the only way to beat the devil is humility
I think that policy was geared to the native students.
Racist policy.
I had the same situation that happened to me when i was a kid at Montezuma it was field day at school and doing skits and I had my Snoopy shirt on and the teacher got mad at me and put like a dress on me and that was not okay what the teacher did to me so I could understand how the farmington grad felt as well to.
Native strong 💪 aho'
Those two ladies need to step off and get arrested. This is violation!!!
I remember growing up in window rock and non natives would often wear their traditional dress on traditional dress up day. Every parent dressed their child. Navajos, Zuni, Hopi, White mtn, Pueblo, Irish, Uzbekistan, Saudi, Aleutian. And nobody at the school said this is only for natives, the school being open about it made every child realize there are different backgrounds and to accept everyone despite how we we're all different. I didn't experience racism and exclusion until I lived near farmington and finished high school in the area. Farmington area is just not accepting of anyone not like them, they are stubborn in a lot of ways.
Without the names of the two women and their supervisors .......... this really isn't a story !!!
That's very sad 😢 that they took the two caps 😔 away from the student that was graduating 😭 just because it had decorative 🧿🧿🧿🧿🧿🧿🧿🧿🧿🧿🧿🧿😢beads on it 😮all of the students had 😢there cap 🎓🎓🎓🎓🎓🎓🎓🎓🎓 and grown on🎉accept 😉 the two 😂other ones ❤
Completely ridiculous. She worked for that cap. And it’s a honor to have the beadwork. Shame on the school district. Not to mention the school rep does this while the national anthem is being played!
Anyway 🎉 congratulations to all the students 😮that made it to graduate 😞 line 😅one 🎉 thing we are going to say 😁 hope you become something out of your self 🎉and show your parents 😮and they will be proud of you 🎉please 🥺 don't do drugs 😮in your life ❤️ from 😢the 😢 USA 💗💕
It is called " indoctrination".
What's so stupid about you going to wear it one time and why are they crying about you pay for it you bought it with your own money so is that really your property
I would have went up to the podium, and spoke in her behalf!
Very disgusting, disrespectful, racist, religious discrimination. Apology not enough. Fire all staff involved. Native Americans are rare in my community, but one should know this was soon wrong!
Waaaa
So who’s the person that took the cap.. let’s see her. Anybody have her social media lol
The school was disrespectful to this young lady
😢 plus take it away and destroy it 😮, it doesn't look good for the Karen involved.
@@Renee-wy1po it sure doesn't
Well, the ''karen'' involved is rumored to be another native American. So, what now? @@Renee-wy1po
