The United States is cultural appropriation personified.

Is that bad?

I would argue that it is not a bad thing.  It gives us creative mixtures of culture in art, cuisine, thinking, etc.

This idea that culture is stagnant and should be segregated based on ethnic or racial lines feels at odd to the American experiment.
