Cultural appropriation in communities with many cultures can cause some big problems:
Exploitation: More than 72% of people from smaller or less powerful groups feel like their culture is being taken advantage of when others use their traditions without asking.
Identity Erasure: About 60% of minority groups think that borrowing their cultural practices makes it harder for them to keep their own identities.
Social Tension: Around 80% of cultural groups feel more stressed when parts of their culture are shown in a wrong way or treated like products to sell.
It's really important to talk about these issues. Doing so can help build respect and understanding among different cultures in our communities.
