It is when you misuse someone else’s culture. I think it is a problem because it’s ripping off someone else and getting more praise than them.

Answer:

The adoption of an aspect of one culture by a person of another culture.

Or when people from one culture use symbols, clothing, artifacts, or other distinctive tropes of a different culture, without any respect for their original meaning or their importance to the people who originally devised them.

Explanation:

I agree that  Cultural appropriation is a problem but, Cultural (appreciation) on the other hand isn't.  It's when you take part in someone’s culture and embrace it whilst acknowledging that it is not your own.

EXAMPLE: Cultural appreciation could be wearing a traditional Ghanaian dress at your best friend’s traditional Ghanaian wedding or eating some Asian food at an Asian restaurant. There’s nothing wrong with sharing our cultures but taking a part of it and claiming it as your own is what's disrespectful.

Which statement best expresses the theme of the passage? It is important to recognize a dictatorship before it is too late. Main
raketka [301]

Answer:

The statement that best expresses the theme of the passage is that It is important to recognize a dictatorship before it is too late.

Explanation:

The passage was from George Orwell's Animal Farm when Boxer,one of the animals was led away to his death and despite the pleas and cries from the other animals to the two horses that came to carry him out, they fell on deaf ears.

The book Animal Farm is a book about the animals living in relative peace in a farm, who were guided by some commandments such as "All animals are equal" and "No animal shall be killed by another animal" but soon after there arose a dictator among them who subtly changed the commandments to suit his dictatorship rule and the animals were too blind to notice it until it had become too late, eventually ending in Boxer, one of the prized horses being taken away to his death.
