That is such a good point about how things that are ridiculed and despised about minorities turn to gold the minute White people adopt and pursue them while continuing to be ridiculed and despised about minorities, right down to darker skin. That element of racism is at the crux of the negative kind of cultural appropriation. All these words and phrases that are tied to racial awareness are complicated with subtle nuances, and I wish people would take the time to fully understand them rather than applying basic black and white (no pun intended) interpretations to them.
