StarstruckIllusion 41,998 Posted June 18, 2018 Share Posted June 18, 2018 This was cultural appreciation, like the girl wearing the Chinese dress. Anyone mad at Beyoncé for the video needs to realize this lmao. And who would appreciate all that art? It’s so beautiful. There were other scenes in it too btw. What a great video.

Time is being wasted on trivial **** like this when black men are being shot and incarcerated for decades for minor crimes. THAT'S what people should be concerned about; not cos Brad likes Kanye and wants to wear his hair a certain way You're absolutely right, but nobody (at least logically) is saying that you can't pay attention to both? I think cultural appropriation is a smaller, more micro-aggressive facet of a larger systemic, intersectional, and worldwide issue of contemporary colonialism and racism. 3 points in and ready for more Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

hankhatesyouall 2,731 Posted June 18, 2018 Share Posted June 18, 2018 The hypocrisy of social justice warriors has just reached the level of absolute insanity. There is always a knee jerk reaction from progressives when a certain white rappers tries to use elements of hip-hop culture or, God forbids, a white woman shoots a video in Africa without black people on the cast. At the same time it's completely OK for the Carters to film their "dancing" in a French Museum and show the greatest European paintings without featuring a single white person in their video. It seems like it doesn't work both ways. I do not want to buy this "oppressed" bullshit. How are the Carters oppressed? Jay is a drug dealer and Beyonce is a filthy rich pop singer who suddenly became woke. They should have filmed this in Houston or Africa, stay away from the European heritage. The same people who adore their new video say that white people have no culture. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally it's one of my favorites. She had a certain infatuation with the culture for a very long time. The second segment of The Drowned World Tour is more to observe!

Are you a white supremacist? DO you not like it when people of colour and other races are featured? DO you think it should have been all whites? It's a great video and you are a disgusting racist,.

NCgaga 4,146 Posted June 19, 2018 Share Posted June 19, 2018 There is no such thing as cultural appropriation. Any adult human being can express themselves in any artistic manner that they want. Not one Human on this earth owns any style or concept, and has no right to look at another human being and say "No" - you can't do that. Beyonce can dress in Italian/Greek Culture and wear blonde wigs because she wants to. Britney spears can rock an afro if she wants. This whole Idea that A group of humans "Owns" an artistic or expressive concept is false and fabricated by people who are overly offended and sensitive to every thing.
