Have you ever heard of cultural appropriation? [Aprenda Ser Feliz]

Hello all right??

Today I bring to you, a reflection on what has been our way of thinking about something or someone...
In this photo, we have two women, both covered the same way, but each with different meaning... yes, different meaning... the first picture, is an Arabic and Muslim woman, she is culturally represented, and the second picture, we have an American and Christian woman, representing what she does as fashion...
In the eyes of many, the first image has been seen as an oppression, that Muslim women have no rights or powers over themselves, are forced by their husbands, to dress in an unwanted way, and we end up forgetting that culture , whatever it is, imposes virtues, behaviors and rules of good coexistence... the way we analyze our culture, we want it to be that way for all peoples...

For the second image, ahhhh, there's no oppression, it's just fashion, we dress as we want... yes, unfortunately that's been our analogy...

Have you ever heard of cultural appropriation?

Calm down, I help you... you know that moment when some elements of your culture, are used by people other than your culture, and still gain the benefit and power over it as the originals?? Yeah, this is cultural appropriation... and in that picture, we can see it concretely, the second image, is an appropriation of the first.
Our vision, is to ridicule for being an Arab woman using it, even though she knows that she is her identity, and when she is a person who has power or influence in the fashion world, we leave her rich with applause and praise...

So what do we fight about?? What do we stand for?

It's good, and it would be better if we didn't get influenced by international media, it has a power of transformation cultural identity, for them, everything has a standard, and if you're not inside it, you're not considered... it's from that moment you start to hate yourself, or think what you are, naturally ugly, until you are represented by them...

Fashion??? It's good, after all it's a representation or mix of culture, idea, emotion and will... but don't let it be your point of representation... affirm yourself and accept yourself as you are, let it they change what they are...

Culture, is identity of an individual... individual without culture, does not have one (me)..
