I have chosen Cultural Appropriation as my central theme for this assignment. I decided on this theme due to the fact that I myself am bicultural and often see cultural appropriation of my 2 cultures in different contexts as well as other cultures. I have chosen the 3 academic articles and 2 media articles for my source material. However I will mainly be focusing on my the first academic article listed below.
Academic Article 1:
The Properties of Culture and the Politics of Possessing Identity: Native Claims in the Cultural Appropriation Controversy
By Rosemary Coombe
Social Science Research Network
Academic Article 2:
CROSS CULTURAL CONSUMPTIOn Global Markets, Local Realities
Edited By David Howes
Academic Article 3:

Media Article 1:

Media Article 2:

Hey Camille. I think you were really informative with this post. The inclusion of different types of articles shows that you have put a lot of thought into this assignment and kept your options open if one doesn’t work out the way you wanted it too. One thing that I would improve on is to just give a small description of the article as it would make it easier for the audience to understand. Otherwise it was a really good read. Thank you 🙂
