stop wearing Bandanas. White people invented it stop eating pizza. It belongs to the Italians. stop listening to rap. Black people were the first ones to rap. see how stupid all of this sounds? Lebron is being very stupid here.
@@camoflage1948 It's about stealing something than saying you invented it that's what appropriation is. Everyone is free to appreciate and use, that's a natural-born right. But outright stealing and our just appreciating is not something that should be tolerated. That's the point.
No one’s “stealing” your culture, we’re simply enjoying life and expressing ourselves in our own, personal, way.I’d be really happy if a foreigner cooked or even tried my national food, not start screaming that he’s stealing my customs and traditions. Next time you get in a car, just remember that a German dude by the name of Carl Benz invented it. And if you own a Mercedes, I suggest selling it because that’s cultural appropriation of the highest degree.
You don’t understand what he means. he’s referring to the people who disrespect black people and our culture and start partaking in it once it’s made popular by white/non black poc. Nobody’s saying you can’t enjoy other people’s culture but it’s unfair when it’s taken from you and you’re still being disrespected by those same people who involve themselves in ur culture lmao

I don’t think anything actually counts as cultural appropriation...... people just like to wine for attention, how can a clothing company or a hair style appropriate a culture?
Cultural appropriation is one of the dumbest things I’ve ever heard of it’s like you preach that everyone should be treated equally well like then what gives you the right to tell me I can’t talk a certain way or eat certain foods dress certain ways because of my race it’s ridiculous
@Black Jesus Um I think you having a defensive rebuttal to OP’s comment about how Lebron’s comment is trash, shows you sorta agree with what he’s saying. And in the other comments you going on about cultural appropriation so..
I agree with you. How dare they make nearly full black teams to entertain these people?! FILL THOSE TEAMS WITH NON BLACKS!!! and see how they feel to entertain people! hahaha

@@jaciiibeh6572 you’re not understanding that he’s not saying u can’t enjoy or participate in cultures but he’s saying you shouldn’t steal cultures. Stealing is different from participating in. I think you’re the one not understanding logic.
@@jaciiibeh6572 I watched it fully and i don’t mean to speak for lebron but im very confident that’s what he means. This is coming from someone who is black and sees people stealing black culture instead of appreciating, respecting and participating in it.
What people don’t get is that culture becomes culture by being shared. If we all stayed in our little boxes from the beginning of time and stuck to doing things exactly as our tribe of people had done, the world would be a boring place. There are those people that are obviously trying to act like they’re a different race, but we all know they look ridiculous, and it isn’t the norm so everyone needs to pipe tf down.
Perfect. Well said. I think some people nowadays don’t understand the difference between cultural appropriation and cultural appreciation. In order to appreciate another culture it helps to be involved in that culture in order to learn.
Bill Burr had a good one talking about appropriation with his wife. She was fussing about black culture and inventions being stolen and he said something like "but haven't you taken a plane from L.A. to N.Y.?"
Apparently being racist means sharing and appreciating aspects of each others culture. Who knew? It's almost like these folks are the real racists. That can't be the case though...could it? Such a mystery
Bro he literally means that when black people do something and some white people do the same thing and they get praised more.. Its like when way back then when black ppl says AAVE words and they got called improper speaker and then when white ppl do it people call them trendy and not much harsh stuff... Or something like that

Plus, at the end of the day, everyone gets better cookies, what's bad about that? The whole point of human conversation and interaction is to learn from one another so we don't have to re-invent the wheel every time a new person is born, this whole 'appropriation' shit comes from the incorrect idea of human originality, when in reality, originality is just a faliure to cite sources.
@@thisismetrying6614 TLDR: the concept of ownership of ideas is stupid and counterproductive to creativity. Problem with your arguement is, at what point can any culture claim anything as their own when all human creativity is inspired by what already exists? How much do you have to change something before it's yours and yours alone? Far too often is percived originalty merely a faliure to cite sources. Is the first man to mince meat also the inventor of beef/hamburgers and chilli con carne? Or is the mere act of shaping it and putting it between two slices of bread enough to call it your own - and since sandwiches were invented before beef/hamburgers, could one not say that whoever claimed to invent beefburgers actually 'stole' the idea from another since both involve meat between bread? Is the first person to add cheese to the mix defiling a cultural phenomena by changing it to claim their own ownership of 'inventing the cheeseburger', or do they have just as much right to do so as any of the other people along the development line? Let me point out that as silly as this seems, individual ownership still makes more sense than trying to take credit for an idea you didn't even take part in creating just because you share a similar background.
“They steal our food” I don’t see a problem with eating the kind of food, that “they” eat. But if someone steals my food, by breaking into my House, and then taking all the hotdogs in my refrigerator. I do see a problem
Teufel Hunden u know about slavery right? How hundreds of years ago blacks were brought to this country and got their identity stolen. Blacks can’t go back to Africa just like u can’t go back to where your ancestor are from and making a living there.
Bob Smith Bro, anyone that is a 3rd Generation maybe even 2nd won’t be able to live in the country they emigrated from. Let’s say that your family came from Germany to America in the 1950s. I bet that u won’t be able to go back to Germany and get a job. To tell a black person to go back to their country is ignorant because u can’t go back to we’re u are originally from either.
Yo I'm from Africa and dumb stereotypes like this one really need to stop. People starve everywhere, but the media just portrays the bad parts of Africa. I know you were trying to make a joke but I'm just telling you just in case you didn't know.
Nothing wrong with feeding off another culture. Everyone does it. As long as it’s respectful thats the main thing. The world isnt as racist as black people try to make it seem. And im black myself.
Exactly. I feel like now in days alot of people are overly obssesed with identity politics to the point where appreciation of other cultures is now considered appropriation. They're getting appropriation and appreciation mixed up and its really stupid. I feel like instead of demonizing, we can just educate people who want to learn.
@@zman8164 to add to your statement. We are not in the 1700s. The problems of today with blacks are nowhere near the problems of before. 99 percent of the time im confused as to how race even gets brought up in to many things. & why are black people the face of minorities? There are so many other races that dont have a voice. The fight should be for ALL minorities. But lets make sure the fight isnt one that we are causing. Im for equality for everyone and the constant bashing and blaming of white people is so fucking irritating.
@@ButteryAssNigga Yep i agree with you 100%. Black people aren't the only group of people that have issues. every race does. And also the constant trend of bashing white people is kind of ridiculous. but apparently its ok and white people can't experience racism because they were our oppressors back then. Which has never made sense to me because majority of white people living today most likely had nothing to do with the racist practices of the past. tackling racism with racism has always been stupid to me.
Except Italian culture was not stolen by americans, it was introduced by Italians to them and sold for good money. They bought the Italian culture for money and they still buying it from mostly Italians. Also it put Italy as a tourists destination into the mind of the americans.
I feel like, when he was told to just play ball and shut up, that, it was meant in a friendly way, so that people do not see how amazingly ignorant Lebron James actually is outside the basketball court and business. I still think MJ did a great job, not allowing politicians to use him for their bs.
Last time I heard some black person say “you still our language” I was like “English is an Anglo language from United Kingdom that’s found in Europe(White continent)” I swear I laugh
I think what he meant to say, but doesn’t have the vocabulary to properly articulate it, is that whites have begun incorporating Ebonics into their Indo-European languages. And I’m sure that in his basketball bubble, every white person that he’s around has had to learn Ebonics and use it in order to have any hope of communicating.
@@AV57 Ebonics which in turn is influenced by Scots-Ulster, Scottish and Northern English Colloquliasms. The word Yall comes from the Scots-Ulster word Yee-awl.
The fact that this video has as many dislikes as it has proves just how racist black Americans are. People have looked the other way on racism from black people for way too long. Hopefully people start to wake up to the facts and speak up. Black people need to be held accountable and punished for their racist behavior and learn that it is completely unacceptable.
@Brick Stone But louis Vuitton bags were never "African American" clothing or accessories, you might want to check out the history on that one. 100% agree that there's aspects of African American culture that were cultivated during the slavery period and subsequent, styles of music and dance that have been sometimes exploited by others, but beyond that, stop defending an idiot.

No one’s “stealing” your culture, we’re simply enjoying life and expressing ourselves in our own, personal, way.I’d be really happy if a foreigner cooked or even tried my national food, not start screaming that he’s stealing my customs and traditions.

The whole point of human conversation and interaction is to learn from one another so we don't have to re-invent the wheel every time a new person is born, this whole 'appropriation' shit comes from the incorrect idea of human originality, when in reality, originality is just a faliure to cite sources.

Is the first man to mince meat also the inventor of beef/hamburgers and chilli con carne? Or is the mere act of shaping it and putting it between two slices of bread enough to call it your own - and since sandwiches were invented before beef/hamburgers, could one not say that whoever claimed to invent beefburgers actually 'stole' the idea from another since both involve meat between bread? Is the first person to add cheese to the mix defiling a cultural phenomena by changing it to claim their own ownership of 'inventing the cheeseburger', or do they have just as much right to do so as any of the other people along the development line? Let me point out that as silly as this seems, individual ownership still makes more sense than trying to take credit for an idea you didn't even take part in creating just because you share a similar background.
