I dropped her off this morning and saw girls (and boys) wearing grass skirts, some of them with coconut bras too. I'm not sure what else is going on, but it doesn't seem very respectful of a native culture that we have seriously fucked over. Would they have a "Native American Day" and let kids come in wearing feathered headdresses?

Or am I reading too much into it?

Ok, then in that case OP doesn't have a right to decide elementary school Hawaiian day is offense. Case closed.

There is a difference. OP is asking if indigenous Hawaiians would find it offensive. You have been stating that it isn’t as a matter of fact, even though it’s not for you decide.

Yeah I catch your drift. I didn't know he was asking Hawaiians specifically. I guess everyone in this thread should keep quiet.
