cultural appropriation 

Cultural Appropriation is the very real theft of the elements of a minority culture, stolen by the majority, and joined into pop culture, without acknowledging the original creators of that culture. Elements that the original culture are usually made fun of for embracing, but are made trendy by the majority while abusing its significance. Anyone can appropriate culture.

"Do you see Steven with that tribal tattoo? "
"Total cultural appropriation he isn't even native American and he doesn't know what they stand for. He said they just looked cool"

cultural appropriation 

The act of contaminating white culture with outside influences.

Proponents of this term demand that customs, practices or traditions that originated in a non-white culture be kept out of it.

Increasingly, the term is used to purge non-white culture altogether.

"You can't wear a colombian costume on Halloween, that's cultural appropriation!"
"I am colombian."
"That doesn't matter; it might trigger the other white racists."

when white people thinks it's okay to steal all the ~~~pretty~~~ or appealing things from cultures and use them for attention (i.e basically every white female celebrity with a bindi or miley cyrus and 'twerking') . It's pretty annoying and i ask you to please stop

miley cyrus: i may be a hill-billy but i can twerk!!!

white audience: lmao raise da roof!!!!!! holla!!

black audience: "hysterical laughter"
