Native Views — Local services in Charlemont

Biggest Scam I've ever seen in my entire Life. Not one item I picked up was prayed on or authentic. A full blown Asian Woman selling these knock offs and barely passing as good or decent looking items to an Elderly White couple. While that couple confidentlu asked her if they were all real and she nodded eagerly and confirmed with a wide smile and dark spirit eyes. Definitely scared me enough to never return. IN NO WAY am I Racist. I'm a crossbreed myself partly being native American but it's the principles and consequences of harassing the spirit world and the elders and ancestors passed. It's also Pathetic you can not have one single reservation in Massachusetts and have this store having all these native artwork and designs and teepees out front to attract attention. It's pure culture appropriation and should be shut down and raised up on charges. But I know that won't happen that's how they got there in the first place so the settlers great great grandchildren can continue to profit off the backs of the Native American Culture and claim the medicines and sacred items and prayer tools and show them off to there other settler decendents and claim to have bout it from a real native American store. Pfft Ha That store is a Joke a Literally Joke. Don't be fooled by the glam or the sheen to the inside of the place look under each item or look at the stitching or look for the pattern difference. It's absolutely terrible. Hurts my heart for every indigenous ancestors and there decendents. A Prayer to the Creator To All My Relations Mitakuye Oyasin. Please bring back indigenous owned or operated business and profit and gain. Bring back the equal opportunities for the indigenous ones. Bring Love and Peace to all creations in that process as well. Good Day and Good Night. From the smallest being to the largest. From the insects and microbeings to the largest two and four legged on to the winged and back to the children and the parents and aunties and uncles and cousins and always but never forgotten our grandparents and there ancestors before...

There really wasn't much in the way of Native American offerings. The shop had an eclectic vibe and felt more like a yard sale than a specific point of interest. I did buy a beaded trinket, but it wasn't representative of Native American culture. They have since replaced the name with "Himalayan" rather than something related to Native American fare. However, there still isn't much that reflects its former identity.

On the bright side, they have a large selection of gemstones, jewelry, and some vintage postcards, which is nice. But most of the other items were unrelated to the shop's name. It is a great place to take a picture in front of the teepee! Unfortunately, the building is faded, which is sad to see. It used to be brightly painted, and I wish it could return to its...

Great souvenir shop. Native American owned and operated. Please Disregard the reviews from the obvious liberal Socialists who claim that these proud Native Americans are "selling out their culture" or appropriating culture. Calling for the removal of the iconic landmark big chief statue out front. It has been a rt2 staple for as long as I can remember . Give these people your business. Buy your souvenirs here Not only do they sell Native American items But items from India, Mexico, Asia. A good mix of novelty items and crafted items. Beautiful jewelry selection! Hand crafted antler and stone knives, dream catchers.... so...
