Awkwafina: Accentuate the Positive

from Apologies Accepted Hosted by Apologies Accepted

Awkwafina is living the American dream. She jumped from YouTube to rap albums to Hollywood in a few short years and got there by showing her appreciation for hip hop culture. Some people think she got there by cultural appropriation, and have been pretty vocal about it. Awkwafina has heard them and issued an apology. She's an allie, she's got your back, but she's having a hard time saying that she's sorry. What is cultural appropriation? Is it the same thing as cultural appreciation, cultural emulation, or is it something that is hard to define - but you know it when you see it?
