this is just funny to me. like any cultural group or race has exclusive rights to any particular piece of culture. i guess the egyptians could make a case for their exclusive rights to pyramids, or the greeks to doric columns. maybe the former soviet union will lay claim to their exclusive domain over the color red. sorry, i guess i just dont buy this.
seriously, getting in someone's face because you dont like their hairstyle? i think they call that rude. i really dont think it is correct to call this a race issue, because i cant see how it is one. i think this is just a case of someone feeling entitled to impose their narrow view of the world on someone else. kinda like when my ex told me that wearing sneakers to a wedding was just wrong. maybe it was, but nobody complained, and my buddy thought it was pretty cool. but i often find the things i think are ok are not with others. so i usually keep my mouth shut. maybe i inflict my opinion on a few unsuspecting souls who have the grave misfortune to read my underwhelming blog.
i think i need to stop wearing silk, although i grew up on the pacific rim, i am not of asian ancestry. cotton probably has cultural roots also, so the indigenous peoples of the americas have claim to that. i'm probably safe with wool and leather given who my forebears are. do you see where i am going with this?
every culture borrows from every other culture that it comes in contact with. every culture. different cultures also develop similar ideas independently. pyramids are not unique to egypt. dreadlocks are not unique to the caribbean.
lighten up francis.
