Appropriateness in popular Culture
There are many instances in which an established culture adopts elements of a minority's culture. This practice, known as cultural appropriation can lead to feelings of disdain from members of minority groups. Many Black people view this as a patronizing behaviour, whether wearing an Native American headdress to a music festival or wearing blackface for Halloween.
A dominant group could also take elements from minority cultures. However, they could also take advantage of intellectual property belonging to the minority group. Blackfishing is one instance. It is important to keep in mind that people of color have a long history of being disenfranchised and marginalized. For instance, if you see a black person wearing a blackface Halloween costume You should think about the history of black people being excluded.
