The only time I'm offended by cultural appropriation is when I see people mocking a certain culture for example blackface or when somebody is using stereotypes and dressing like that certain culture that make fun of it
Completely disagree. All forms of cultural appropriation, even mocking should be used. If you can let other people mock your braids as goofy, then you can mock their moustache as silly, and through that you can become friends. If you can let the small stuff roll off your back, then you can be friends with anyone. It's only when you start looking for things to get offended by that you start opening the door to hating others.
If you're an artist, fashion designer, author, or musician, why wouldn't you want to be so recognized for your art that you are able to be cross cultural. It only makes sense to be offended if you are not creating something of value. Those who can, do, those who can't, attempt to teach. Why create something and become selfish with it. People who genuinely have talent want to share, and they don't care what you look like.
@@adrianjimenez3968 Who knows but what happens when the one selling the "racist depiction" is someone from there for example you can say that a sleeping mexican with a sombrero and a bottle besides him is beign sold in Mexico as a keychain or other turist memorabilia, is it bad, is it racist? If the Mexican culture sells ir or replicates it is it bad to imitate it? Mexicans don't consider other people living outside of the country the same as them but funny enough most popular traditions tend to survive outside of the place they originated does that make it cultural apropiation if where the country it originated is no longer practicing it?
The whole cultural propitiation thing doesn’t make a ton of sense. Imitating another culture used to be considered a sign of cultural superiority. If it’s done in a mocking way like a guy in a sombrero, poncho, fake moustache walks around doing a stereotypical accent I could see the argument for that. Wearing a poncho or sombrero on their own are not. I’m part Scottish wouldn’t say that a black man wearing a kilt is appropriation either. The thing I get particularly annoyed about is when people say dreads are appropriation. Dreads were first work by egyptians or greeks. Kind of around the same time so it’s unclear who did it first. Celtics and vikings also worse braids and cornrows. Most black africans don’t wear dreads it’s more a Rastafarian and African American thing. These other cultures have been wearing those long before black or white people ever set foot in North America so to call it appropriation is ignorant. Going off that logic i could make an argument that the man with dreads in this video is appropriating those cultures
Most black people. You just type Caribbean’s and black Americans so by most black people you mean Africans black? Are you mental stupid. That’s literally where the word dreadlocks come from. It’s from African hair being ugly and dreadful to white people. Literally all you need is Afro natural hair that’s not brush for 1 or 2 weeks and it’s already matting up. That’s why anyone hairstylist/braider/deadlock stylists. Literally say it’s easy to do dreadlocks on black natural Afro hair then any hair textures.
@@TheRedNacho delete what. I am still waiting. Literally look at native Americans matted hair compare to black peoples practice of locking hair and tell me if they look alike. If you blind I can give you some glasses. Viking didn’t have dreadlocks No other European had it. Probably the homeless/poor and suffering probably had matted hair from not washing and taking care of their dirty hair and if that’s what y’all call dreadlocks that’s funny. Egypt is literally filled with black Egypt and also Egypt aren’t white. They either Arab, black Egypt and North African amazigy it whatever they call it and other native North African. Who aren’t white race. Even Arab don’t wanna be called white but y’all love to claim North African Egypt as white when there plenty of black native Egyptian. Greek literally is known for stealing culture from Egypt nothing new. I can list so many Greek culture that come from North African or other African countries. Even both Dutch and French braids come from North African countries.
@@dddd5989 Yeah dude I can’t help you here. You are trying to claim shit that simple google searches can prove and disprove really easily. Vikings and celts wore lochs. So did Greeks. Native Americans has similar ways of wearing lochs. You can point to so many cultures cultures that have worn their hair like that. My point is that claiming a hairstyle is cultural appropriation is retarded especially when it’s been worn in many parts of the world for centuries and it’s debatable where it originated. Also if you want to know the specifics about the Egyptian race you should research that a bit too. They generally aren’t considered arabs and don’t love to be labelled as such just because a lot are muslim. If you are going to talk about dutch and french braids, dutch braids were credited as being brought to the Netherlands by South African immigrants and french braids saw similar braiding styles in algeria which is just across the sea. So are you saying that these are appropriation? These have been part of these cultures for many years.. going off your logic I can label every non egyptian black man with dreads as a cultural appropriator. You understand that right? I’m assuming not because you can barely speak and spell properly. I don’t understand you race baiter progressive types. You claim we need to be “multicultural” but then you want to segregate certain groups from certain things like a hairstyle? I’m sure you appropriate a lot of cultures every day. Is the hairstyle you wear invented by your culture? The clothes you wear? The house you live in? The car you drive? The bed you sleep on? The shoes you wear? You better hope it is otherwise you are ApPrOpRiAtInG
I had a Japanese hair spa last week and l am half Chinese and half Australian. Does that mean l am a white supremacist because l got a Japanese hair spa and not a Chinese hair spa?
😂 I loved the comment about the dreadlocks and lynching someone 😂 That is exactly why I do not agree with cultural appropriation, unless it’s like what you said, making fun of someone for the purpose of offending. I wonder how this so-called “doctor of English” would feel about trans rights especially since he just said that dressing up as a woman and mocking her in that way is cultural appropriation… unfortunately I have a feeling he is all about trans rights. If we had to sit and think about cultural appropriation on a daily basis, we would drive ourselves insane and never want to leave our homes for fear of culturally appropriating lol I’m sorry to say this, but that doctor of English is extremely racist. (Edited) I would also like to add, that the doctor is wearing a suit that very much resembles the suits of the Victorian era worn by French and English culture. So by his own logic, he is culturally appropriating in this video.
I’m just seeing this but this it’s so hard. I’ve been called a racist, a culture appropriator, because I’m not Asian yet I have the same spiritual beliefs as most Japanese people. I invested so much time to study on the history and culture of Japan and love to share that, yet my very white family yell at me and tell me how disappointed they are in me for appropriating, thinking it’s an anime thing. I’m a spiritualist that grew up in Texas, pardon me for gravitating toward the only society on earth that thinks how I think. I guess I should know my place and just be country southern? That’s the only life I can know?
Love how the black girl complaining about the braids with Kim kardashian is wearing hoop earring when dr phill said “Latinos said this about hoop earrings”
I have always thought locs and cornrows were pretty and wanted them. Even when I was a few years old I wanted Whoopi Goldberg to take off the "funny hat" she wore in Sister Act so I could see her pretty hair. Now that I have learned more about black hair, I have a whole new appreciation for the styles. They are like a story on your head! I wanted to get cornrows now that live closer to a place who does the braids, but haven't because I don't want to hurt or offend anyone. So, in short, I am in the camp of people you mentioned at the beginning of your video. A white person with a genuine appreciation for braids and locs. But I understand that black people are mistreated a lot when they wear that hair and I don’t want to make them feel I am stealing, so I have not gone to get them. Just so y'all know, though, you guys have beautiful hair, and should be able to wear your natural hair without being mistreated, losing your job or being stereotyped. Beautiful!
Instead of cultural appropriation, what about cultural appreciation?
I love that
Well said people need to stop being against each other comes together as one everyone needs to be in a group nowadays
How was this year ago and it’s still going on

braids aren't traditionally a black thing being from Nordic hereditary anyone wearing it is appropriating my culture 🤣🤣

The whole issue about cultural appropriation when money is being made from cultural appropriation.
Some examples?

Anything to continue to be the victim.
So who braided their hair first, Native Americans or black people?
Its not the braid its the style of braid
There’s different STYLES of braids not all braids are the same
