PURPOSE OF THIS SITE
This resource website was created to assist you in completing your analysis essay on cultural appropriation. Please "read" all pages, links, clips prior to completing your written assignment. This resource will definitely help you to get a sense of how to construct your analysis.
The Case Study pages feature a list of curated links provided to give you an entry point into how others have analyzed and offered critical readings of these two cultural appropriation examples: Native Americans used for sports team branding and the proliferation of Asian inspired designs (of all forms) in the American marketplace.
These Case Studies enter into a critical conversation about cultural appropriation. Likewise, you will contribute to the conversation given the specific "text" / "image" / "cultural artifact" you have selected and the supplementary texts you will read about and integrate into your analysis.
