Don Blaheta teaches computer science at
Longwood University,
in Farmville, Virginia.
He's still finding his way around but hopes to get involved in local
theatre and singing communities as well as carrying on
(in his
copious free time) his old habits of
knitting, reading, and attending some of the many cultural offerings of the
college and the town.
Appreciate the effort you put into this. Well-written and informative.

This comment critiques how the valid concept of cultural appropriation is being misused and "weaponized," leading to illogical demands (like only demographically matched artists translating or performing) that stifle artistic interpretation and empathy.

Cousin Michael is the best, and we can learn how we are dealing with the ideas that provide great solutions to us. We are getting these ides and when I used
Broadbeach landscape construction I saw these are the best options that are providing us the best results.
This is such a thoughtful piece. Cultural appropriation is real and harmful, but gatekeeping empathy, art, and interpretation based on identity checklists misses the point and silences the very voices we claim to support.
