[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Teach your child to say we don’t do cultural appropriation. [/quote] Teach your child to say "Cultural appropriation is a social construct invented by white academics in the 1980s in order to meet publishing quotas."[/quote] In the 80's academics thought cultural appropriation was a normal part of culture. Which it is. This whole idea of cultural "purity" is kind of volke and creepy, I think. Culture is not a rarefied, nationalist, hothouse orchid. It is an ever-evolving messy snowball that takes the best and sometimes the worst of different things and combines them with other things [/quote]
