Cultural appropriation is the admiration or use of indigenous cultural practices of minorities by white people. Or is it?
Indigenous activists state people need to more clearly define the line between appreciating and appropriating another culture’s heritage.
Here is an example. Appreciating another culture would be a white person buying a sweater made by a Navajo artist. Appropriating the Navajo culture would be wearing that prior mentioned sweater. You see the difference? It’s important to start being able to make that distinction as indigenous activists are on the warpath. Because these activists are not just asking the UN to disavow cultural appropriation, they want to implement international laws and measures that will take all of this PC hysteria to a completely new level.
Will it soon be illegal for kids to learn to play the 12 bar blues? Will the parents be criminally prosecuted as is now the case in the U.S. if kids get caught sexting? What if a person unknowingly knits a sweater using colors associated with a certain Native American tribe? How do these indigenous activists propose courts differentiate accidental associations with deliberate appropriation? All on the next page:
Frak Off!! Disband the UN and remove them from American soil.
So this will be the garb on all african Americans
Only if yout a member of UN….
WE’RE THANKFULLY NOT
Wow, they yell diversity, diversity, and tolerance, and tolerance…then they claim that cultural appropriation is unacceptable!
Try to enforce it
The IN is a useless piece of sh..
Cease funding the UN
Let’s see how this works. If anyone travels to another part is the world and buys a souvenir, say in Africa, made by the indigenous people there, the traveler can be prosecuted. It doesn’t matter that the item was made for this purpose and the Indigenous people need the financial assistance. Many places are totally dependent on the financial transfusion the tourist trade annually brings to their economy.
Another example, someone travels to New Mexico and visits a Navajo Pueblo and purchases a blanket, or jewelry, or Indian art that was made for the tourist trade and the Navajo economy, they would be prosecuted. What do the Indigenous people think of this atrocious law ?
Lol! What total b******t!
Obama informed them differently. They are pushing that One World Government and U.N. is in charge. I thought this was a joke until I’ve seen the Pope, UN, Germany and other Countries pushing this idea. I’ve seen U.N. Military vehicles going South on I-65 within the last three years. I could not believe it! All of the traffic on my side of the road slowed down to watch it. When they take our guns, it’s over.
