What Is Cultural Appropriation
Yes, it can and does – but usually in a different way. Often a more
marginalised culture will adopt aspects of the stronger in order to
fit in, not stand out. Black women, for example, frequently report

cases of women being told by employers it looks “unprofessional”.
Some say they must spend time and money to make it more like
“white hair”, HuffPost reports.
