Actually let me go ahead and say this because people have been commenting about Twilight on some of my La Push photos, and people get nostalgic for the Twilight series in autumn so there's always an uptick in Twilight content across social media platforms this time of year:
It's not only outrageously disrespectful to record 'funny' Twilight content at La Push, it's also in direct violation of the Quileute Tribal Council's media policies. Yes, even for personal use:
I've seen several videos on Instagram, Tiktok, and Tumblr of people running in slow motion on beaches in La Push to the Twilight soundtrack. It's not funny. It's not cute.
If you're planning to visit La Push, take 2 minutes to review that policy and the Quileute Tribe's etiquette expectations.
Please stop making Twilight jokes & references on posts about La Push that have nothing to do with Twilight. I delete those comments from my posts.
Yes, plenty of people will remember several popular posts I made years ago about the Twilight vampires. I read the first book once, in 2007. I made posts about Twilight without remembering many details of the story, and I was ignorant to the damage the series had done (and still does) to the Quileute Tribe. I'm not posturing as 'pure' or better than anyone else in that regard.
Only that I learned, and now I know better. You can too: Read about Quileute Facts vs. Twilight Fiction.
And I've said this before: I can't actually stop you from engaging in Twilight media. But consider donating what you have or would spend on anything Twilight to the the Quileute Tribe's Move to Higher Ground fund:
What’s at stake?
Living in a tsunami zone at the edge of the Pacific Ocean, a catastrophic earthquake can wipe out our community in less than 10 minutes – an entire generation of the Quileute people will cease to exist. We need your help to move our tribal community from a disaster zone to a safer, better, and higher ground.
