empressmo: trancybats-deactivated20150808: Yes you and about 12 other people have told me and i thought it was because people were saying that because perrie had dreads she was doing cultural appropration Whites having dreadlocks is cultural appropriation. If its not part of your culture do not do it. All whites are not celts and none of you are vikings. Yeah so apparently some people don’t understand that dreadlocks have been a thing for literally thousands of years, appear in many cultures from all over the world (including several European countries), and pre-date Rastafarianism by…you know…quite a bit. And that wearing dreadlocks is not “cultural appropriation” because you can’t appropriate your own culture, guys. The significance of locks varies wildly from culture to culture from deep religious significance to fashion statement, so don’t even give me that BS. …and I’d like to remind you that if you want to say “all whites are not celts,” then the opposing statement “all blacks are not Rastafari” is also applicable and you’re being a hypocrite. If you’re going to go the whole “if it’s not part of your culture don’t do it” BS, you need to recognize that cultural appropriation and cultural diffusion are not the same thing and actually study the way cultures interact and meld instead of just spouting off some close-minded and racist remarks.

YEA SO APPARENTLY WHITE PEOPLE TRY TO TELL YOU WHAT CULTURAL APPROPRIATION IS BUT ONLY ACHIEVE IN MAKING AN ASS OF THEMSELVES.

THE EARLIEST KNOWN REPRESENTATION OF DREADLOCKS IS IN AFRICA NOT EUROPE.THEN IN INDIA.

NICE TRY WHITE PERSON WHO JUST BLURTS OUT WHITE EUROPEANS HAD DREADLOCKS FIRST WITHOUT ANY PROOF OTHER THAN WHITE PRIVILEGE.

AS FOR BLACKS NOT BEING RASTAFARI. YOU PROVE YOUR A WHITE FOOL. BLACKS ALL BLACKS CAN JOIN RASTAFARI. RASTAFARI IS FOR BLACKS NOT WHITE PEOPLE. RASTAFARI IS PART OF MY CULTURE SO YOUR WHITE ASS SHOULD NOT SPEAK ON WHAT YOU DO NOT KNOW.

YOU NEED TO FIND A LIBRARY AND READ A BOOK FAST. YOU HAVE NO CLUE AS TO WHAT YOU ARE TALKING ABOUT.I DONT HAVE TO STUDY WHAT IS AND HAS BEEN A PART OF MY CULTURE FOR THOUSANDS OF YEARS YOU IGNORANT LIL RACIST.
