How STUPID And RACIST Is "Cultural Appropriation"?
Is it "cultural appropriation when black actors play the part of white Founders of the United States like in the painfully stupid musical "Madison"? Would it be "cultural appropriation" for a black man to play James Bond when Ian Fleming created him white? Does cultural appropriation mean NO black or Asian actor can play ANY of Shakespeare's lead characters, because they were all white, and can only Jews play Shylock?
Africans did not invent the violin and Asians did not invent the piano - should ALL blacks and Asians who play in classical symphonies be accused of cultural appropriation and be banned? In fact symphonies and the tone poems themselves were created by white Europeans; should an American Indian be prevented from ever conducting one at a concert?
Careful what you wish for Social Justice Maniacs...you might just get what you demand.
