WE ARE NOT A FUCKING TREND. DO FUCKING RESEARCH BEFORE DOING SOMETHING SO UNEDUCATED AND IGNORANT.
THINK BEFORE
YOU APPROPRIATE!!!!!
Often times, I hear that when it comes to cultural appropriation, ethnic groups are "too sensitive". Or that these attempts to "share and support" our movement are not supposed to be interpreted as appropriation but rather as "appreciation",when you make our traditional wear into "costumes", or use OUR movement without knowing what it means you are not "celebrating us or Sharing". You get to have the cool, “exotic” costume that your friends admire. But you never have to suffer, or even understand, the histories of imperialistic thinking that categorized and continue to categorize us as “savages” “primitive” "irredeemably non Christian" because of our traditions and cultural wear. Because at the end of the night, after you’ve won a prize for “best” or even “most exotic” costume, you get to take it off and hang it back up in your closet.But we can’t. Put more plainly, white ignorance is a doctrine that asserts that it isn’t mere happenstance that white people have the privilege of remaining racially ignorant; it’s part of the package of privileges that comes with being white.
