Ethnical-Cocooning

Ethnical-Cocooning, coined by Reuel-Azriel Lé Flore, is a transformative process whereby an ethnic group breaks away from their native country and heritage, and undergoes an incubation period to emerge as a new, hybrid ethnic group. This process involves assimilating into the new host country, territory, and society, and acculturating by denouncing the ancestral homeland through deprogramming. It is a form of cultural metamorphosis, in which an ethnic group sheds its old identity and embraces a new one, while preserving aspects of their original culture.

As a theory, Ethnical-Cocooning suggests that the transformation of ethnic identity is a natural process of cultural evolution, which is driven by the forces of globalization and migration. It proposes that the hybridization of cultures, resulting from this transformation, can lead to the emergence of new and innovative cultural expressions, which can enrich and diversify society.

My family's experience of ethnical-cocooning began when we moved to a new country and had to adapt to a new culture while also trying to maintain our heritage.

ethnically lesbian

Queer Spawn born of lesbian-identifying parents.

"Being ethnically lesbian means I was taught masculinity by a butch, so I still bottle up my emotions but when they boil over I'll just cry instead of hitting you and asking for another beer"

Ethnicapture

Ethnicapture refers to the dominance or disproportionate control exerted by a particular ethnic group within an industry, organization, or system, often resulting in imbalances, limited opportunities for other ethnicities, and potential biases or discrimination.

The term "Ethnicapture" draws parallels from the concept of "regulatory capture," which involves an industry's control or influence over the regulatory agency that oversees it. Similarly, Ethnicapture evolved to describe a scenario where one ethnic group gains disproportionate control within a specific industry or system, leading to imbalances and potential biases. It extends the idea of capture beyond regulatory contexts to highlight the dominance of a particular ethnicity, affecting representation and opportunities for others within that domain.

I feel like certain communities have ethnicapture of the political sphere, making it challenging for other groups to have their voices heard and considered in decision-making processes.

Ethnically Intolerant

A politically correct way to describe someone who expresses racist beliefs, behaviors, or stereotypes while insisting they’re just being “honest,” “traditional,” or “not sensitive.” Often used to call out prejudice without using explicit slurs.

“ My uncle isn’t racist—he’s just severely ethnically intolerant.”

“She called it a joke, but everyone in the room heard the ethnically intolerant energy loud and clear.“

“HR didn’t fire him for being racist, they fired him for being ethnically intolerant.”
