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
example of cultural appropriation:
miley cyrus: i may be a hill-billy but i can twerk!!!
white audience: lmao raise da roof!!!!!! holla!!
black audience: "hysterical laughter"

1. A "culture" defined as getting shit done by whatever means necessary. It's usually largely opposed by sixsigma assholes and lazy university graduates who lack the common sense and hands on work ethic needed to make anything work.
Newest 6s/phd CEO of company: "We wirr be a moving away a from the "Cowboy Curture" in the coming years and moving towards a direction of failure. Wiz these new changes you will all be out of jobs."

A cultural apologist is a person that will utilize a culture that is not native to himself as a polite gesture to a foreigner. These people tend to think that foreigners like them better, as they will often use over needed accents on words such as: "Fajita", "Quesadilla", "menage a trois", "Hola", "Adios", and "Punta"
Mary is being a Cultural Apologist because she keeps pronouncing fajita as if she were from Mexico. Opposed to saying it the American way "Fah-GI-Tah".
I hate the way Ryan is being such a cultural apologist... he keeps saying Ms. Gonzales name as if he were from fricken Mexico. HE'S FROM CANADA!

The adoption or use of elements of one culture by members of a different culture. Many people mistake cultural appropriation with Cultural Appreciation. As there is a difference between taking the time to learn about a culture and taking a culture's traditions, clothing etc. and misrepresenting them.
Cultural Appropriation: Wearing a Native American costume is offensive because the clothing in that culture is very sacred
Cultural Appreciation: Taking some time to learn about Native American culture (traditional dances, clothing, foods etc.)
Not to mention some cultures have a dark history attached to them and they still face present-day issues.
So if you truly want to embrace a culture, then do a bit of research on the culture and do it properly.
