Other people wearing their hair in a Black/African-inspired style isn?t automaticlaly appropriation.

I have to humbly disagree

What would be the next step in this case?

Reaching out to him to put him in his place?

We can let him know he can still love and appreciate us and not become us, he should love himself too because he was beautiful before, It doesn't have too be housewives episode

?Take (something) for one?s own use, typically without the owner?s permission.?

I don?t see the problem as long as someone knows the origin of the style they?re wearing and give credit. Appreciating other cultures is the only way we?ll learn to become one..

Even if he is appropriating, why do you feel the need to go out of your way to point out how different he is? Why not share some info and keep it moving. I just don?t understand why so much energy is spent, it really takes a toll..

That "without owner's permission" part is key.

Considering that we pass our culture out like candy - sell it to White owned record labels for distribution and exploitation (which explains why you have non-Black people walking around thinking it's OK to say "nigga" since they're just singing along),  and issue complimentary Black cards and invitations to "the cookout" on a regular basis.

Clock it!

Knowing where it comes from isn't the complete point, you don't have to wear us to appreciate us. There's no way around this. Sorry, and it is a problem, we were taunted for centuries because of the way we naturaly look and now it's called appreciating and sharing when a non black does it and might even get the job before an actual black...nah.IDTS

How about taking over 500 years of PTSD from slavery from some of us, how about taking the police harassment and killings that comes with it sometimes, You can't wear us and call it appreciation theres a difference, if you don't care or can care less then that's you

I agree with what you?re saying to a certain extent but I wish we lived in a country/world where appropriation was the biggest of our worries..

Now see...there's the problem and "trendy" you've got to be kidding

I hear what you're saying, We have so much more to serve and appropriation isn't the biggest piece of the pie, but we still have to cut and serve it every time it's done baking

Yh urban/youth culture here is basically black culture, it's "cool" and "trendy"

Just who is he going to go to for "permission" to wear his hair in a certain style as per your definition? The nigger council? Like I said, if he's not parading himself as the face of the black struggle or trying to take credit for "creating" that style, what's the issue? We all borrow from each other's culture daily. Why get so worked up about it? You're arguing down here about it and he's out there living his best life. It's wasted energy.
