RE: The Diary Game - A day full of surprises from the men in my life!
My first impulse: what a cool son you have! He should take everything the art scene throws at him!
My second impulse: oh oh. In Germany that would be real trouble now. "Cultural appropriation" is a big topic right now and an even bigger crime...
My third impulse: how stupid can people be if they want to regulate the joy of life?
Mein erster Impuls: was für einen coolen Sohn Du hast! Soll bloß alles mitnehmen, was ihm die Kunstszene an Chancen zuwirft!
Mein zweiter Impuls: oh oh. In Deutschland gäbe das jetzt richtig Ärger. "Kulturelle Aneignung" ist nämlich gerade großes Thema und noch größere Untat...
Mein dritter Impuls: wie doof können Menschen sein, wenn sie Lebensfreude reglementieren wollen...
South Africa is a very complex country and the apartheid era left a huge mark not only between black and white but all races.
It is only through sharing culture and sport that we are starting to be a united country. Happenings like this, a white boy singing a black artist song, can spark significant changes.
Cultural appropriation, indeed stupid and I hope it doesn't cross the ocean.
Best statement ever!!
