Performing the works of a different culture used to be called “admiration” or “diversity” or “education.” Now it’s cultural appropriation, whatever that means. They have come full circle. Western performers were once criticized for limiting their performances to Western music. Apparently now the race commissars would limit them to that repetoire. Wait a few years. Soon they will be requiring the inclusion in all concerts of non-Western music performed by non-Western artists without regard to the quality of the music or the skill of the musicians. It’s not about art or culture. To the race commissars, nothing matters but race.
These protesters aren’t “students”...they are bloomin’ idiots.
