Cultural Segregation

Cultural segregation is the opposite end of the spectrum from cultural appropriation. It is the end goal of people who believe that cultures should stay pure and not mix, and can be considered a form of racism. The phrase "cultural appropriation" is sometimes used disingenuously with the end goal of discouraging culture mixing.
Someone said I was "appropriating Cuban culture" by using that rhythm in a song, but remixing culture is what keeps things interesting. Could you imagine how boring a world of cultural segregation would be, with nobody sharing ideas?
