“Therefore, you are certain to have dreads, Amanda Lind”
“Replica where kulturministerns hairstyle and cultural reclamation”
“This is an opinion piece. It is the writer who stands for the views that are put forward in the text, not Against.”
“the DEBATE. Nisrit Ghebil writes that Sweden’s minister of culture Amanda Lind not allowed to have dreads, because a girl in a catholic school in the united states did not have them. My question is: What is the one with the other to do? “
“the Problem here lies not with Amanda Lind, the problem lies with the schools, in the united states that has racist rules. If it is okay to have dreads as a white, but not black in the same scenario – then it is racist. But in this case it is two completely different scenarios we’re talking about. “
“Personally, I think that Amanda Lind look very “ghetto” like Ghebil call it. The skin color makes no difference, but it is the hairdo in combination with other style that makes the difference. “
“Everyone should be tolerant towards each other and then it is okay to borrow styles from other cultures. “
“To talk about cultural reclamation is that to say that cultures only belong to certain people and all of the others may stay at their own culture. But the protectionist attitude will only lead to less cultural diversity, because all cultures have their neighborhoods and do not interact between each other. Is not integration just about mixing cultures, so you get many more interesting cultures in the end? “
“Watch New York with his unique blend of a lot of different cultures, which together have made the city one of the most interesting on earth. Cultural mix also leads to more innovation, because you get different perspectives on a problem.”
“I’m German, does that mean that no one else besides me and my countrymen get to eat turkey for christmas because it is a German tradition, or may only the british have afternoon tea? Don’t get a white girl wearing a chinese dress to a dance? “
“Such double standards, it must not be in a society, everyone should learn from other cultures and to live them out if they so wish, in any degree whatsoever.”
