Here's one of mine- making exotic and foreign dishes is NOT cultural appropriation- everyone should be free to make whatever food they wish as no recipes should belong to any one race/group. Culinary gatekeeping needs to end. Allow your tastebuds to embark on a global trip via your kitchen, guilt-free!

Ozacoter 2 years ago

Indeed. Cultures have always enriched from sharing with each other. There is barely any culture that has developed on their own (except maybe a few isolated tribes). One thing is to be disrespectful but the odea of "cultural apropiation" is most of the time used just to attack people percieved as white for anything they do. For example Japanese people often come to spain, buy sevillana dresses and dance flamenco, aparently it is quite popular. And thats great. Why is it bad if a spanish person then buys a kimono and learns how to make sushi?

In Africa if white folks get dreads or cornrows or wear shweshwe we super love it and get excited.

.... Thats not what cultural appropriation is. Cultural appropriation is when let's say a restaurant chain claims they invented a dish that's actually a dish from a different culture.
