University of New Hampshire Student Activists Demand Local Businesses Stop Selling Ponchos And Sombreros

Students at the University of New Hampshire have had it with the cultural appropriation that is local Durham businesses selling items such as ponchos and sombreros.

The student activist group "All Eyes On UNH" made the demand last week following various Cinco de Mayo celebrations, including one interaction in which a student posted a video to Facebook of herself loudly chastising another student for wearing a serape-style poncho to a party.
