Therefore, you should not have dreads, Amanda Lind
"Therefore, you shall not have dreads, Amanda Lind"

"Debater: instead of listening to criticism choose the minister of culture, to pretend that nothing is happening"

"This is an opinion piece. It is the writer who stands for the views that are put forward in the text, not Against."

"the DEBATE. New day and new people who do not seem to understand the concepts of ”prevail” and “cultural reclamation”."

"the Latest example is Aftonbladet columnist Johan Norberg, who jumped into the debate on the minister of culture, Amanda Linds talked about the dreadlocks. In his column he writes that cultural reclamation is a ridiculous discussion that approprierats from a ”kränkhetskrig” at american universities. "

"He continues to draw irrelevant comparisons with other things that different people and nations, ”approprierat” from each other, and writes that, ”Amanda lind's hairstyle is not theft. At its height, it is receiving stolen goods. It was Bob Marley, began.”"

"I'm actually quite tired of having to explain things that man, with the simplicity, can google, but now I do it anyway to all of you who think so here to understand the point of cultural reclamation."

"First and foremost, I'm going to explain why the comparisons are irrelevant. Different cultures inspired each other for centuries, unfortunately, is not this discussion about it. "

"Chikayzea Flanders was 12 years old when his school said that he must cut his dreads because they did not fit with the school uniform. Faith Fennidy was 11 years old when her school told her that her tresses with hair extensions not merged with the school policy. Tiana Parker was 7 years old when she was sent home from school for her hairstyle (dreads) not looked presentable."

"Then we have a white woman who has dreads and becomes minister of culture. The problem is that we have white women and men who every day do from black culture and be praised for it. At the same time, life becomes literally difficult for many black people when they live out their own culture. "

"It's not about to borrow from cultures, it's all about that a black person can be kicked out of school for the same hairstyle as a white person with one of Sweden's highest posts."

"Try to understand the position: you get hate and gets called names for the same thing that someone else is hailed for, just because you don't look like the person. All this despite the fact that you have a closer connection to the matter than what the celebrated person. "

"Believe it or not, you become angry and sad when you have had hair styles like dreads or braids, and has been called ”ghetto”, unprofessional and so on in all his life, and then open up Instagram to see the ”new Kardashian trend: braids'."

"don't Forget that something which in the west is trendy or exotic often has a dark history that those who culturally do refuse to talk about. The white student meant no bad when she chose to wear a chinese dress to his school prom, it does not mean, however, that the colonial and imperial background does not exist. "

"neither do I think that Amanda o'leary mean anything bad with his dreadlocks, but the history and actual cases of systematic oppression is still there. Rather than listen and adapt to criticism, however, choose Amanda and the student to pretend that nothing is happening. At the expense of the other."

"incidentally, I think that it is remarkable that time and again is the one that has the least substance to do that is constantly screaming out their opinions."
