The Camera is appropriation of French culture | Cultural Appropriation | Know Your Meme

Color Paradigm added 5 new photos. January 18. From today. LikeC CommentShare Chronological Chaim Shneider Goldsteinberg Love the photos, but I can't help but notice you're using a camera - a French invention that was improved over the last two centuries by people of European descent. I don't want to be rude, but would you discontinue the use of cameras? They're an important symbol of my culture, and should not be appropriated by members of other cultures. I'm sure you understand.

University Yoga Class Halted Over 'Cultural Appropriation

University Yoga Class Halted Over 'Cultural Appropriation': Instructor After a firestorm of criticism, a student group now claims the class was ended because it simply wasn't popular. Kim Bellware Reporter, The Huffington Post Posted: 11/23/2015 05:27 PM EST Days after being widely ridiculed for suspending a yoga class for students with disabilities due to concerns over "cultural appropriation," a student center at the University of Ottawa is now saying the class was scrapped because no one attended them. "[No] one attended the classes so that's why we ended them, its not that hard to understand people, the fact that disabled people are getting harrassed [sic] over this is ridiculous," the university's Centre for Students with Disabilities said Monday via Facebook in response to criticism of its decision Yoga instructor Jennifer Scharf, who taught a class at the CSD since 2008, told the CBC on Sunday that she learned in September the class wouldn't be happening because several staff members and students were uncomfortable with "cultural issues. "I guess it was this cultural appropriation issue because yoga originally comes from India," Scharf told the CBC. Scharf said she offered to change the name of the course to "mindful stretching" since her instructions don't address Hindu scripture or other aspects tied to the practice's religious roots.

"You will be held accountable for everything that your ancestors have ever done, FOREVER"

White people always wanna preach about'sharing cultures but last time i checked, they spent half their existence sailing around the world murdering people for being different and brainwashing people to stop practicing their owns cultures while forcing assimilation to white culture. Now you want everyone to happily "share with you. LO tuck outa here

That last paragraph is problematic

Can I wear kimono if I'm not Japanese?/ls it cultural appropriation if I wear kimono? There are different stances on this, however: Probably the only times a non-Japanese person can wear a kimono is 1. when they're marrying a Japanese person 2. when they're invited to by Japanese people If you do wear kimono or yukata etc, wear it correctly. Don't yellowface. The most important thing while wearing something of any culture (even if it's your OWN) is to wear it with RESPECT. If you're posting a picture of you wearing said kimono online and tagging it as "kimono", make sure it's actually a kimono or we will correct you. However, it's important to keep in mind that a white person wearing kimono or taking part in cultures and customs of a people that has been oppressed and colonized by white people is going to be problematic no matter what

Taylor Swift takes back her culture

Let me explain a fetw things about cultural appropriation to pou··· Baseball Caps were invented by members of the basebal team "Cinncinnati reds", all of whom were white Hoods are a Furopean headress often sported by jesters or infamous bandits (Robin Hood, anyone?) so claims that the concept of wearing a hood on your head belongs to black people alone is insane, since it was white people who first developed it. Boomboxes were invented by Phillips, a company in the Netherlands, also known as part of Europe, also known as full of white people. If anything, it would make more sense to blame black people for taking boomboxes from whites Bonus! Swift calls herself a "hardcore gangster" in the video. This is not appropriation because the term originally referred to carly cangsters, who were white smugglers of the prohibition era. Due to the massive street cred the term collected under these bloodthirsty psychopaths, white and black rebels formed copycat criminal syndicates under this anner thdr All of this "black" culture was invented by whites...so it really isn't tied to any racial group Let's not have our cultures driven by meaningless racial institutions and boundaries Open source all the beautiful cultures Culture wants to be free

You using sign language is cultural appropriation. You're taking something from Deaf people, people who have beautiful culture and language and butchering it.

"How dare you communicate with deaf people!"

You using sign language is cultural appropriation. You're taking something from Deaf people, people who have beautiful culture and language and butchering it socialjusticeprincesses saekas: glumshoe anditwaspun: wait sorry what'd you say? HA a little bit louder please? RA no just a tad bit louder OH WAIT I CANT HEAR THE HATERS BECAUSE IM DEAF A------ also also "don't learn sign language if you're not deaf because it's cultural appropriation" is. it's just it's the most incomprehensibly terrible argument i have ever heard. Tumbir is a wild wild place "don't learn to communicate with deaf people, it's offensive, let them be put aside of society instead it just baffles me when SJWs try to discourage people from learning new languages, god forbid they learn something that can be beneficial for both themselves and others and try to meet others halfway in communicating with one another it's the most backwards and counterproductive thing I've witnessed here Vanellope This website ucking seriously

Karma is cultural approriation now...

reclaimthebindi。 February 24th 2015, 5:25:25 pm 19 hours ago bagelanjeli asked Do you think the use of "karma" in vernacular english is cultural appropriation? Yup - because it's been so far removed from its actual meaning and because of how much it is disrespected - Karma is NOT and will NEVER be a bitch - people really need to stop saying that. Ask reclaimthebindi a question #karma #hinduism #bagelanjeli #answered 23 notes

What Cultural Appropriation is NOT

What Cultural Appropriation is NOT chaotically-neutral Cultural appropriation is real and can be very harmful, but Tumblr en masse has grossly misdefined it. Here are some examples of what isn't cultural appropriation: - Eating food from another culture Properly practicing a religion trom another culture Listening to music from another culture Reading literature from another culture Learning a new language Respecttuly wearing clothing from another cuiture in an appropriate setting such as overseas, at a cultural event, wedding, etc. Buying crafts from local craftsman. Respectfully participating in cultural activities such as yoga, dreidel, and belly dancing Respectfully wearing or using non-sacred icons or art from another cuiture, such as Chinese pottery or in some cases, henna Trying out instruments and tools from another cuiture, such as chopsticks or traditional writing instruments Many people from other cultures are actually offended when Americans try to fight "cultural appropriation". For example, many Japanese people thought that criticism of Avril Lavigne's video was laughably ignorant at best and racist at worst. Also, in many countries, Americans who refuse to partake in cultural activities or traditional dress out of fear of appropriation are seen as snobbish and entitled. Additionally, many religions actively encourage evangelization. Saying that religions traditionally practiced by non-white people cannot freely spread has some very racist implications Being culturally literate actively fights racial prejudice or ignorance. Taking the time to learn another culture's history, values, perspective, and traditions makes people better citizens. For example, understanding how various cultures and religions view illness will help me be a better nurse. Cultural competence can only help society, and it prevents genuine, offensive cultural appropriation. There are definitely some gray areas when it comes to cultural appropriation. Some Christians find non-Christians using crosses in fashion offensive, while some do not, for example. Intent can also carry some significance. For example, someone may tully understand the sacred meaning of the ankh and feel a strong spiritual connection to it. Another person may just think it looks cool. Both wear an ankh ring, but one would definitely not be appropriating while the other has entered a gray area Some cultural practices overlap as well. lattooing has been practiced around the world by many cultures that didn't come into contact with each other, for example. Meditation has also been practiced around the world. Buddhist mediation is arguably the best known, but nearly every culture and religion has one or more varieties of it. (I personally like the method practiced in Ancient Ireland best, because it's the only one l personally know that allows one to think exclusively in words. It's not physically possible for an NLDer to "turn off" verbal thinking, so most other forms of meditation are inaccessible.) Historically, separating cultures often leads to cultural incompetence xenophobia, discrimination, stereotyping, and racism. Cultural appropriation is bad, but that doesn't make cultural segregation good
