columbusing

The act of columbusing refers to being the first (famous) white person to “discover” something or somewhere that non-white people (and some white people) have known for a while. Popularized in a CollegeHumor skit, it references how Columbus is credited for “discovering” the New World in 1492, although there were already ingenous people on there, and besides, vikings had already reached the Americas centuries before.
Twerking has been around since at least the 90s, but it only entered the public conscious after Miley Cyrus got away with columbusing it.
