What is cultural appropriation? Why is it considered a problem? do you agree?

Sagot :

It is when you misuse someone else’s culture. I think it is a problem because it’s ripping off someone else and getting more praise than them.

Answer:

The adoption of an aspect of one culture by a person of another culture.

Or when people from one culture use symbols, clothing, artifacts, or other distinctive tropes of a different culture, without any respect for their original meaning or their importance to the people who originally devised them.

Explanation:

I agree that  Cultural appropriation is a problem but, Cultural (appreciation) on the other hand isn't.  It's when you take part in someone’s culture and embrace it whilst acknowledging that it is not your own.

EXAMPLE: Cultural appreciation could be wearing a traditional Ghanaian dress at your best friend’s traditional Ghanaian wedding or eating some Asian food at an Asian restaurant. There’s nothing wrong with sharing our cultures but taking a part of it and claiming it as your own is what's disrespectful.
