I'm a whiteskin and I'd wear it.
It would hit a little different if you wore it

"I told you not to turn around."
You made me rewatch that scene ... as Indigenous people, my friends and I had used to howl in laughter whenever Indians appeared in the Simpsons ...

Yes, you can see the ongoing oppression by all the white people stuck in reservations.
