I already posted my opinion on the warbonnet in Lana's video in that thread, but imo I wasn't really offended by her wearing one in the video and found it more symbolic than racist. Then again I don't follow the traditions of those who view such pieces as religious garb despite being a Native citizen myself. However I can understand Natives (especially those from the Plains tribes) that follow traditional beliefs to be offended by it than I would and they have a right to that opinion.
Speaking of Nelly's video, I think it would've been great if Lana had Natives in Ride instead of biker dudes. Would've made more sense to me and gave some recognition to Natives as well. But that's a lost opportunity so oh well.
