If anyone works with little kids, can you answer this question for me? When I was in elementary school, we were often told to sit “Indian-style.” Given that people are really fucking sensitive about stereotypes and incorrect labels for different ethnicities these days, has the term changed? And if so, what is it now? Cross-legged? Lotus-style? God forbid, “Native American-style”? That’s a mouthful for a kindergartener.

I think you mean “first-nations-people style”
