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:
So…I can’t drink green beer on St Paddy’s day, or a Corona on Cinqo de Mayo…or eat at a Mexican Restaurant, or Chinese, Italian…or dress that way on Halloween? For crying out loud this is getting ridiculous! ALL CULTURES STOLE IDEAS FROM OTHER CULTURES…ALL THROUGH THE AGES!
UN stay out of our business amen this is America amen
UN needs to go. Defund and ask to leave!
So-o-o…. when Lib-Loons invite in millions of illegals then trumpet and adopt their cultures, that would be “appropriation”? When Lezzie Warren gets a university position by claiming Native American cheek bones, that would be “appropriation”? When American blacks wear clothing designed by whites, that would be “appropriation”? This is just another way the Far Left has of destroying America, it has nothing to do with “appropriation”, they would never enforce it equally and they know it. More LIES and Leftist Hypocrisy.
Screw the UN and their wants. This is America we have a Constitution which protects against that$#%&!@*
Tell the UN to go screw
Complete idiosy!
Don’t give a rats$#%&!@*what the UN spits out
Hell with the UN we need to get out of the UN completely and throw all the thousands of un troops that are on us soil out of this country and quit paying for their asses
This b******t. The U.N. doesn’t have the authority.
You Russian operative douche bags bent on undermining our country.
