Appropriateness in popular culture
We often see cases where a dominant culture adopts elements from the culture of a minority. This practice, known as cultural appropriation, can cause disdain from minority members. It doesn't matter if you wear the traditional Native American headdress at a music festival or wearing blackface to Halloween, a lot of Black people feel that this is a form of patronizing behavior.
