native_arts is a place for those who are interested in learning about and discussing Artists belonging to the Native and Indigenous Cultures of the Americas and Australia. In a society where we are surrounded by prejudice and racism, we aim to shed some light on their passions and their causes and of course, highlight their wonderful work, whatever the Art form, so that you may gain a new understanding and appreciation from their perspective. Come and enjoy, participate and discuss.
1. RESPECT. By this we mean both the people in the community and the people being discussed. Treat others how you'd like to be treated. If you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all. All opinions are welcomed but there's never a need to be nasty about anything. (besides, you never know who's watching *raises eyebrows*)
2. Stay on topic. That's pretty straightforward, right?
