You've heard the term "cultural appropriation." Well, here is the reality. It doesnt exist. Every single culture borrows from others. Whether it be from India, Korea, Japan to the corners of North America, all of us have borrowed from others mostly out of respect! The Kansas City Chiefs won the Super Bowl. Should all the players & the City be reprimanded for celebrating the Native Chief? Of course not. It's a point of admiration. The NBA consists of mainly African American Athletes. Basketball was literally founded by a Canadian who happened to be White. Should We all boycott the NBA for hijacking the Sport & appropriating the Sport? Of course not. The list goes on & on. Celebrate Culture. It belongs to Humanity, not one Skin Color!
