Thoughts on Cultural Appropriation?
Last week at San Francisco State, a non- African American kid was chastised for having dreadlocks He was accused of “cultural appropriation”.
But lots of people with curly hair have adopted dreads, including Anne Lamott and Newton Faulkner, . So my opinion was it was all a bit too much to get angry about people adopting a style that is Rastafarian.
But then Justin Bieber of all people showed up with dreads .
Where would you draw the line between appreciation and appropriation?
