Chris Hemsworth and Elsa Pataky cause controversy with their New Year's Eve photo
Elsa Pataky, the actor's wife, shared a moment from her private party through her Instagram account.
The arrival of Chris Hemsworth to Instagram has been something to talk about since he published the first image of him last October, but now the account that has caused controversy is that of his wife, Elsa Pataky. The actress also published a photograph of her end of the year party in which the couple appears, along with a group of friends, dressed as Indians and with a "Wanted" poster in the style of the Old West.
Although it may seem like a photograph without evil, many people have seen the stamp as an insult to the Native Americans. "This photograph and those costumes completely ignore this dark part of American history and the role of the settlers in that violence towards the people they are 'celebrating' with" or "Native Americans have suffered enough abuse at the hands of White people, why add insensitive and offensive cultural appropriation to the list? "
At the same time, many other people who defined themselves as Native Americans or claimed that they were not offended by Pataky and Hemsworth's costumes: "If people can dress up whatever they want on Halloween, why can't he in a Halloween costume? party?".
