People getting in trouble for "cultural appropriation" is one of the biggest jokes in modern history.

I wore an Emitt Smith jersey for Halloween one year when I was a kid. I sure hope my current employer doesn't dig that photo up....

A white woman who went to Burning Man with cornrows and now lives in Baltimore running a rock opera is probably the definition of a avowed leftist. But even she isn't safe from the fringe lunacy.

My only hope through all of this is her thinking to herself "how can they be attacking ME?!" as her own Brutus keeps plunging the proverbial knife.

Holy chit. If I has a dollar for every black woman I've seen in a blonde wig, I'd be retired on a Caribbean island I own.

Chances are, she would've sided against another Person of No Color had the issue be aimed at someone else.

She should have known that it is forbidden for whites to say the hard-R or wear cornrows.

She began the job on Sept 8 and got released 3 weeks later. I’ll garantee that there is more to this story than what is being reported. Likely had a probationary period that she didn’t make it through.

Regardless, if you want an executive position, you best be acting like an executive….

She got fired for a hairstyle that wouldn't have gotten a black woman fired. Clear cut racial discrimination. Can't do that.


Why not?

People can be fired for any reason.

You wore a blue suit today. I don’t like blue suits. You’re fired.

See how that works.

So you don't support at will employment? You think employers should be required to employ people they don't want to employ?

Go ahead and prevaricate, retard.

It's not cultural appropriation. It's cultural appreciation.

That’s my biggest issue. Revisionist history as cultural appropriation.

Cultural appropriation is another leftist method to control people. It never goes both ways nor should it. It should be stamped out in this country.

This problem will all correct itself. At the rate all these vapid broads are voting in Sharia Law they'll all be wearing hijabs and we won't know what kind of hairstyle they have.

Because of discrimination laws, I guarantee you that employers are employing thousands of people whom they don’t want to employ.
