I agree with your post.
The issue I have is that this hoodie, was most likely puchased by an adult or at least consent to her wearing it was given by an adult. This does nothing help heal the issues with Native Communities, in fact I would suggest it only makes them worse. If the aim is truely to move towards reconcilliation and forgiveness this is not helpful.
