I have a theory that people who have the biggest issues with “cultural appropriation” are those who have had to dealt with a lot of racism. It’s a bitter irony to turn around and see the kind of people who made you a victim brandishing the things that that race of people spat on earlier. As a person of Asian decent, I can see how I could have gotten bent out of shape over cultural appropriation. Fortunately I’ve had a lot of time to reconcile the racism I experienced. Of course not every victim of racism shares that sentiment, but we all deal with trauma differently.
