there is a very thin line between cultural appreciation/being inclusive and cultural appropriation, and the line is in a different spot depending on who you ask. i think the difference in perspectives on this are critical for anyone serious about representation, both in art and in life as a whole
just as a reminder to me i have an anxiety disorder and it is okay if i feel like im going to vomit because of work. that's just my cross to bear right now
work has been making my blood pressure rise more lately i think. gee maybe working a job on the higher end of stress levels isn't great for a person diagnosed with anxiety hmm
