Cultural appropriation is the dumbest thing these people need to log off tumblr and try living in the real world

Even if it is fake though there are still people saying off the back of it that white people wearing dreadlocks is cultural appropriation so it's still a valid debate

The whole concept is dumb, no human owns the rights to a certain look or hairstyle and even if they did another person appreciating it and wearing it themselves should be seen as a compliment. People just want to be outraged over everything these days.

The difference is when you guys copy you then take credit for it. Ie, Jazz, rock n roll, the press saying Kim K invented box braids, Eminem the best rapper ever, how many white girls on tv doing the reggae/pop and getting number 1 all over the place, apparently Kylie Jenner made locks chic again which set off a brand new wave of annoyance in blacks, and kylie plumping her lips and people loving vs mac posting a black girl with full natural and getting racist hate. If y'all weren't so annoying we would embrace the copycat **** more.

Show me a black person they embrace and elevate in the metal community. Nah instead black gets, n8ggers don't belong in metal.

Nobody in surprised white people are mocking the meaning of ''cultural appropriation'' because that's what they do best demean anything black people find important.

the kpop community is riddled with this cultural appropriation outrage and other looney nonsense and it's so embarrassing, there's genuine inequality and oppression in the world and people want to get super angry at seungri for wearing a native american headdress it's really not a big deal

One of my favourite bands, as it happens..

Now, does he get unwarranted crap from narrow-minded rednecks because he's a black man in a metal band? Yes, he does, I've read interviews with him talking about it. The point is that he SHOULDN'T. Not that it should be tit for tat! He should be free to make and enjoy the kind of music he loves,regardless of its "origins". Everyone should. Black metal front men and white rappers.

Stupid story, stupid woman. On a side note, she puts her hands on the lad; she needs to cut that the f88k out. I think she was a bit lucky the guy wasnt more aggresiuve with her.

..this isn't necessarily a 'fake story', the video was taken in San Francisco University and it's been questioned whether the female is a university employee, rather than a student but that isn't something that has been confirmed so far as I can see...maybe it's something that some students have taken part I to provoke discussion on the subject..?...


..this article is basically saying what CeeCee has also said, in that 'Cultural appropriation is a problem not just because White people do a Black hairstyle, but because when they do it, it is considered new or trendy. It erases Black people as if they don’t matter.
Black people have always spoken against it. If White people want to borrow some peculiarities from Black culture, they should be willing to embrace everything else.'


http://zikoko.com/gist/cultural-appr...ite-guy-locks/



..what CeeCee is saying I think is that it's extremely annoying to some people that 'black is embraced' in some things but in others, 'black is stereotyped negatively'...and when it is embraced, it's only annoying because it isn't complimented so much or seen so much as a 'fashionable' thing etc unless it's on 'white'...(I think that's what you're saying CeeCee..)..and I do understand, especially as there is still sadly so much negative stereotyping...

..on another site/article..this was one of the comments at the bottom that very much shows the level of racism that is still aimed at black people by some...so I can understand CeeCee's irritation when it feels that some 'pretty/fashionable' culture things are embraced...


Spoiler:

It's too bad the guy didn't kill that black bitch,and black bitches should stop looking like white women with long hair oh I forgot,they're jealous of white women's hair what they need to be doing is getting control of their asshole sons and raise them to help people not kill or rob them,one day your thug ass son just might run into the wrong person and he will be taken care of

I've got mixed feelings on it, I don't really think the example in the OP is cultural appropriation but it does exist. I think it gets misrepresented a lot so it's passed off as a joke.

It's one of Tumblr's buzzwords, they over use phrases so much that they lose all meaning and become written off as a joke. There's nothing wrong with countries copying small things from each other, we've been doing it for millennia, I mean even the discussion in this thread about the history of dreadlocks proves it, it goes back through multiple nations.

I really cannot ****ing stand all of this "we" and "you" as though everyone comes from the same perspective due to the colour of their skin or country they were born etc.

Life doesn't work like that.

Actually reading up on Cultural Appropriation, Ireland (a white nation) could slot into this example as easily so I don't get why us white people are always lumped in as one singular unit of people, our language is on the brink of extinction too thanks to British invasion :

When the last living survivors of massacred Indigenous tribes are fighting to save their language before it dies when they do, and Native students are suspended for speaking in their own Indigenous languages, mirroring the abusive US boarding schools that tried to wipe out Native American cultures up until the 1980s, it’s clear that not every person who speaks English does so by choice.****
