> if in 50 years you still want to be wearing plaid, drinking craft beer, and listening to lcd soundsystem At risk of playing armchair psychologist, this is something I notice in American debates on diversity: people seem to be looking for what's in it for them. What's the hidden music genre I can turn into a trend and profit greatly? Will this traditional African dress make me less like some backwards bumpkin? I don't share the objection to "cultural appropriation" (I like sharing and remixing of cultures). I know it's not an exclusively American phenomenon. But it seems that people are always selling something, and I'm out of money.
