Trying to be too anti-racist can be just as bad as being racist yourself in some cases, as it separates people. Seeing black girls as magical puts them in a superior vision; but it is the superiority that we give them, that actually causes them to be even more separated than before. This also relates to the article that Daniel had: Are You Racist? The article relates to this idea exactly; how the ambition to support people who are segregated only segregates them further. Before going to this meeting, I once thought about how there is a very large and increasing amount of LGBTQ propaganda. At first I felt like LGBTQ support was a positive thing in the world, but after constant bombardment, I feel like it was becoming excessive. Maybe it is hurting the LGBTQ to have too much propaganda supporting it? Perhaps it can sacrifice plots and the quality of work if it is abused? Take this as an example

It's a part of learning - not stealing another person's culture - in fact it demonstrates an open mind and interest in another person's culture. Another important point - if someone White lives in China for example, it would make sense that they learn mandarin so that they can actually LIVE in china. ]]> 2017-11-09 15:16:44 UTC https://padlet.com/rachel_abraham/gc0rms9vqm70/wish/205312699 CAAAAAA https://padlet.com/rachel_abraham/gc0rms9vqm70/wish/205312784 Culture appropriation happens at this school!!]]> 2017-11-09 15:16:51 UTC https://padlet.com/rachel_abraham/gc0rms9vqm70/wish/205312784 It's A Slap In The Face When White Women Wear Black Hairstyles https://padlet.com/rachel_abraham/gc0rms9vqm70/wish/205313441 http://www.huffingtonpost.ca/entry/its-a-slap-in-the-face-when-white-women-wear-black-hairstyles_us_55c0c153e4b0b23e3ce3f27b]]> 2017-11-09 15:17:54 UTC https://padlet.com/rachel_abraham/gc0rms9vqm70/wish/205313441 Woahhhh say honest!! https://padlet.com/rachel_abraham/gc0rms9vqm70/wish/205313873 2017-11-09 15:18:39 UTC https://padlet.com/rachel_abraham/gc0rms9vqm70/wish/205313873 Anime jessica_amiana https://padlet.com/rachel_abraham/gc0rms9vqm70/wish/205314366 Is dressing up as and immersing in anime  cultural appropriation]]> 2017-11-09 15:19:24 UTC https://padlet.com/rachel_abraham/gc0rms9vqm70/wish/205314366 https://padlet.com/rachel_abraham/gc0rms9vqm70/wish/205314603 Ru Paul's drag race had a Madonna runway week and most of the queens chose her kimono outfit]]> 2017-11-09 15:19:48 UTC https://padlet.com/rachel_abraham/gc0rms9vqm70/wish/205314603
