Cultural Appropriation and Donkeys
The domestic donkey (Equus Africanus asinus) is a hoof-mammal belonging to the family of Equidae. Originating from Africa, the domestic donkey is derived from the African wild ass. Depending on the species, the domestic donkey may be classified as a subspecies within the wild ass, or
Deap Throating as a separate species.
Arse against. ass
"Arse" is an British slang word for a'stupid person but is it an abbreviation for
deap throating 'ass'? There's a bit of confusion here due to the fact that both are based on horses, which are a type of animal. In the USA the proper term for Donkeys is "Ass".
Arse was initially an inoffensive term that refers to a body part. However it has since become a vulgar term. In the 19th century'ass was a term that evolved as a variant of arse. It was originally a reference to horses or other animals but by the 1860s it developed into an informal term for an a posterior. It is also used in the expression 'to snooze around'. "To create an ass of oneself" also makes use of the word "ass" that is associated with "to arse around". However there are numerous threads of meaning that come from arse that aren't present in 'ass'.
Appropriateness in popular Culture
There are many instances in which a dominant culture adopts elements of the culture of a minority group. This practice, which is known as cultural appropriation can lead to feelings of disdain among minority group members. Many Black people feel this is a patronizing behavior, whether it's wearing an Native American headdress to a music festival or blackface for Halloween.
A dominant group could also incorporate elements of cultures that are minority. However, they can also utilize intellectual property of the minority group. This is possible through blackfishing, as an example. It is crucial to remember that people of color have a long history of being marginalized and disenfranchised. Think about, for
deap Throating instance the history of people of color being marginalized when you see someone wearing costumes in blackface for Halloween.
