Uploaded on Jun 29, 2008
White Shamans and Plastic Medicine Men is a documentary dealing with the popularization and commercialization of Native American spiritual traditions by Non-Indians. Important questions are asked of those seeking to exploit ritual and sacred ceremony and of those vested with safeguarding sacred ways. This documentary is thematically organized, and deals with romantic stereotypes and copying, the impatience of new age practitioners contrasted to the fact that indigenous spiritual traditions are thousands of years old, and the proselytizing nature of these new age practitioners. The film represents a wide range of voices from several native communities, and speaks to issues of cultural appropriation with humor, righteous anger, and thoughtful insight.

I'm Anglo and I agree with you. There is nothing wrong with wanting to learn about/like other cultures, but this is embarrassing. These guys are to lazy to really study another culture so they just assumed what Hollywood taught them was true. There no different from people who think there experts on Japan by watching Anime or know all about African American culture by listing to rap music. As SNL put it, "Loving Racism"

these people are not spiritual,they aren't respecting that their clothing & spiritual practices came from the native american culture, and they are denying that all together, turning it into a business for themselves.
