The Stream explores the fine line between cultural appropriation and appreciation. As globalization facilitates cultural borrowing, it becomes increasingly challenging to differentiate between honoring a culture and appropriating it. The episode examines various aspects, including food, identity, and trends, addressing the implications of adopting cultural elements without acknowledgment. Featuring guests such as Chef Fadi Kattan and Professor Richie Richardson, the discussion delves into the responsibilities of cultural sharing and the potential pitfalls when cultural heritage is commodified. The episode aims to provoke thought about authenticity and respect in cultural exchanges.
In a globalised world, cultural borrowing is pervasive, yet determining when sharing morphs into appropriation remains a complex and nuanced discussion.
Prestigious chefs or influencers might be celebrated for their ability to present a culture's food, but if origin stories are ignored, it raises serious questions.
