The problem isn't "appropriation" so must as "appropriation without appreciation." In the context of Black America, the taking began with bodies and labor and has continued and expanded right up to present day. Language, food (aka "southern food"), political contributions, music. People the world over take, imitate and benefit from these things and more. Yet viewing and treating Black Americans as inferior is widespread. Why take from those you consider inferior? Who's the real dummy in that situation. Probably the most in-your-face example would white supremacist rock and rap musicians.

  Burzum [1] comes to mind, and certainly a lot of British bands from the 1980s right-wing Oi! scene like Skrewdriver [2]. There are a few rappers in Germany who are open white supremacists like MaKss Damage [3]. The entire idea of white supremacist rap/hip hop seems quite absurd to me given the genre's Afro-American heritage, but I guess that I'm putting too much thought into that.

    They said "the most in-your-face example", which does not mean niche 80s bands. Furthermore Varg Vikernes (Burzum) is not a white supremacist and he has explained why [1]. The reality is that in popular culture, 'nationalism' is seen as a dirty word, let alone 'white nationalism' (which is often conflated with 'white supremacism'). I don't know of any well-known self-proclaimed white supremacists. [1] https://youtube.com/watch?v=JiTnc5tCZ5o https://youtube.com/watch?v=JiTnc5tCZ5o
