Ongoing Cultural Appropriation Masterpost
This will be an ongoing list of informative and educational posts by not only myself, but other members of the POC community. They are all properly credited and when you click on the link, it will take you to their post and their blog. Please support POC bloggers and give them a follow!
Also, if you have made posts or know of really good cultural appropriation posts (please send me actual links) that you would like for me to include in this post (because my search skills can only extend so far haha), please shoot me a message with a link! Since I make posts only on ndn issues (since I am ndn), there might be a few more posts on that subject until I can find more posts to even it out! Thank you for reading!
12/3/16: I fixed the broken links and removed the inactive ones! Added a Pasifika Cultures section!
12/13/16: Added on to all existing sections and made Central/South American cultures their own section.
12/22/16: Expanding the Roma, Asian and Pasifika sections a little.
