She has been showing up a lot recently in my readings. I am just now getting to know her and think she is really exactly who I need to talk to.

A religious identity issue

Pulled from Gaiman
Y'know, I wonder how people would feel if one of the popular costumes was say, someone in blackface with a bone in their hair. While I don't necessarily support the banning of halloween, I would support the removal of witch costumes and imagery from celebrations. It's not that I don't have a sense of humor about the thing, it's just that I am sick of stigma surrounding my religious identity.
