Status Updates From La trappola identitaria: Un...

E atât de frustrant să n-ai timp să citești 🥲.

În orice caz, sunt tare curioasă de cartea asta având în vedere faptul că personal nu sunt de acord cu a te identifica prea tare cu un lucru. Mi se pare că te limitează și reduce conexiunea care s-ar putea crea cu oameni diferiți de tine.

"Instead of condemning cultural appropriation, we should seek to build a society in which members of every group are valued equally — and all are free to draw inspiration from the cultures of their compatriots."

"Cultures are made of continuities and changes, and the identity of a society can survive through these changes. Societies without change aren't authentic; they're just dead."

I agree with this as a stand alone sentence, but more so in this case as the critique of "cultural appropriation" as defended by the left.

Such an important read. I just completed a graduate diploma in DEI and was involved in activism and politics here in Québec. I knew something was off: even though the work mattered, I often felt myself veering away from liberal philosophy and values. This essay lays the groundwork for understanding those “woke” dynamics I got involved in.
