Learning to understand a culture that is different than your own is so important in becoming a global citizen and leader. It is important to understand, however, that there is a difference between appreciation and appropriation.
Appreciation is when someone seeks to understand and learn about another culture in an effort to broaden their perspective and connect with others cross-culturally. Appropriation on the other hand, is simply taking one aspect of a culture that is not your own and using it for your own personal interest. Appropriation could mean of purchasing a piece of jewelry or clothing that may have important cultural significance to that culture, but simply using it as a fashion statement.
It could be taking a photo of a ritual ceremony simply for the sake of getting as many likes on Facebook as possible. Regardless, taking a part of another culture without understanding what it truly means can be harmful not only to those whose culture you are using but also to those with whom you share it. So, how can you explore and take part in a culture without exploiting it for your own use? Here are a few great ways! Still unsure? Use the infographic below to check yourself and make sure that you are respecting and appreciating other cultures in an appropriate way!
At Greenheart Club, our participants are actively engaged in mutual exchange and cultural appreciation. What are some ways that you show your appreciation of other cultures? Trying to learn here. If I got to know the artist, heard her story, etc. But how does anyone else know my intention behind wearing the piece?
What a farce. An excuse for people to get drunk and act inappropriately. But have I ever stated this in this way? Hi Tara- thanks for sharing your thoughts with us!
We agree that there is a fine line between appreciation and appropriation and that we each interpret our cultural identities in different ways. I think that we have all experienced people crossing that line at times, but the important thing is to talk about it and keep learning.
We encourage you to keep exploring these ideas along with us! Thanks for reading! I completely agree with you about St. I was at a store that had shot glasses attached to green beads. Earrings with tiny beer mugs attached. No, you cannot be Irish for a day. It portrays the Irish people as a bunch of drunkards.
I called the corporate offices to express this. I would be equally offended if Sombreros, and more necklaces with Shot glass came out for Cinco De Mayo. A Caucasian wearing a Sombrero, not cool at all.
Thankfully, the stores have enough sense not to do this practice. Now, if we could get them on board for St. Shamrocks, fine, earrings, the same. Please wear green as to not be pinched. Promoting that Irish people are drunkards. Southampton African American Museum will research and collect local history, produce media events, create expand community celebrations.
Thanks for sharing — we agree that it is SO important to learn, embrace, and promote cultural exchange and understanding! A good example was Turquoise jewelry in silver. Our late Mother had several pieces our late Father purchased for her as gifts. They were purchased at department stores. To my knowledge they do not have Native American symbols. I know the Turquoise is real, as is the silver. Were they crafted by Native Americans? This is unknown.
Would it be considered cultural appropriation to wear a bracelet or a necklace every once in awhile? These are bold pieces. Does Turquoise have a special meaning to Native Americans?
I would simple like to wear it in honor of our late Mother. She passed away when I was 23 years old. However, I know times have changed and I certainly do not wish to offend Native peoples. Orris, What a great and thoughtful question!
