But what will Elizabeth Warren think? “The governing body of University of Oklahoma sorority’s system condemned one of its members on Thursday for dressing up as Pocahontas for Halloween,” Scott Greer reported on the Daily Caller on November 3, 2017. “Reagan West, a member of OU’s Pi Beta Phi chapter, decided to dress up as a ‘Pocahottie’ for Halloween as a way to stick it to political correctness, according to a now-deleted tweet.”

“The backlash against this costume decision was overwhelming on social media, with many leftists encouraging harassment against the offending sorority member.”
