Is that "cultural appropriation " ?
If a man dresses up as a woman and calls it "drag queen" is that gender appropriation? If you dress up as a zombie, is that "undead appropriation"

I don't really believe there's such a thing as "cultural appropriation," but I think ppl don't like the idea of dressing up as a native person bc it gives off vibes of mocking or otherizing ppl, legitimate or not. Personally I think it should be OK to dress up as specific indigenous figures if it's done tastefully, but I understand the sensitivity to it.
