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:
GET OUT OF THE UN AND GET THESE CORRUPT MORONS OUT OF THE COUNTRY…
Perhaps if they did what they were organized to do this would be a much better world. Interesting how they keep deflecting from real issues.
Nations like America would be criminal nations since formerly small less significant cultural practices go mainstream in a multicultural melting pot.
WTH? Is insanity spreading like a virus? It would appear that the UN has got the worst of it.
More UN bulls-t.
The UN can go to hell!
Totally Evil…
Keep that on your side of the world.
Screw the UN
UN wants to move all countries to new world order, one world religion, and one world currency. Does anyone really think this is a good idea? UN should be removed from USA and all funding to it stopped.
