Oh man.

The crying Indian wasn’t even a Native American. Another myth from my childhood gone down in flames.

A Japanese friend gifted me traditional hair pins and hair jewelry for "special occasions" (the ones you see on women wearing kimonos).
I am very thankful for this thoughtful gift, I haven't received them but I know how pretty these are and only in my dreams I could have them. I wear hairpins but this is a whole different level. I am afraid of cultural appropriation, but on the other hand, it's a gift from a native wanted me to look "stunning" #CulturalAppropiation #japan #JapaneseTradition

Pro tip : lf you want to use "Japanese culture" and "cultural appropriation" in the same sentence, think twice before saying it, as you're probably about to say something stupid. No, wait. Think twice if you want to use the expression "cultural appropriation" as you're already about to say something stupid. Then think twice more if you want to add "Japanese culture" in the sentence.

A lot of folks misunderstand the harm of #CulturalAppropiation. Consider this: if the success of your business relies on the use of elements from historically marginalized cultures, then you must already understand that what you’ve taken from them is of value.

Lange nicht mehr so wenige Teilnehmer*innen beim #fridaysforfuture #Klimastreik am #Königsplatz in #München gesehen wie heute. Liegt es daran, dass die Menschen wegen #Krieg in der #Ukraine, #COVID19„ #Inflation etc momentan andere Sorgen als stärker empfinden - oder an den undsolidarisch-destruktiven, frisurnormativen Ansichten zu #culturalappropiation die zumindest Teile der #fff vertreten?

Schade jedenfalls.
