That's so exciting that Willow is thinking about hosting a goth night! This episode is very great timing for me because I've been looking for goth music with traditional Indian influence. I can't believe this timing! I definitely subscribed to her channel! 💖

[@CemeteryConfessions]

Wonderful! Very happy to hear that 🖤🪦

The discussion on cultural appropriation is an ongoing and very difficult one. I absolutely agree that whatever has a 'special' significance for somebody should not be exploited or even just sold without their consent and approval. On the other hand nixing all influences could eliminate the natural interaction of cultures and leave us with monoculture that will eventually die off. All is in a constant state of flux and exchange. If it is the 'for sale' aspect that causes trouble, then we should think about what capitalism has been doing to all cultures. It also touches on 'authenticity' and that is a big old container of worms in itself. Common sense goes a long way.
