Lena Dunham has spoken out in support of her old college (Oberlin College), where students are protesting the use of culturally appropriated food like sushi in its dining halls.
“There are now big conversations at Oberlin, where I went to college, about cultural appropriation and whether the dining hall sushi and banh mi disrespect certain cuisines."
The press reported it as, ‘How crazy are Oberlin kids?’ But to me, it was actually, ‘Right on,’” Dunham said.
I... kind of agree with her but there's so much more that's cultural appropriation and it's disrespectful we shouldn't be too sensitive when it comes to some things. like food.
I'm a fan of maintaining cultural sensitivity but Jesus at some point you just gotta let people live. Clearly it's not authentic but it's not like college dining halls are advertising that **** as imported straight from Japan.
