Cultural Appropriation ?
This is a post I have shared on my IG Story the other day and I have received more positive reactions than expected. Thank you for acknowledging and appreciating my posts and for encouraging me to post it
It started off as an instant expression (or rant if you may want lol) and somehow became a proper post
I’ve been requested to make a thread post out of it, so there you go ! Slightly modified and improved it (IMO lol). Hopefully you can resonate with it!
Please share and like and comment any contributing thoughts to this matter as we are here to learn from each other.
Btw, something I always say and also have mentioned in the stories is : We are very aware of how authentic and not authentic food can be, because it seems like we all know that food represents culture. We all know where Sushi comes from (my staple example which my students know ), Pizza or Croissants (inspired by you my friend @pauli_pea ) etc. and no matter how customised or fusioned that food can be,
even people who are non professional cooks talk about these matters.
So why can’t we do the same thing with Dancing ??
Let’s normalise these conversations.
Thank you
