There's so much more to learn about cultural appropriation, you can just about never stop learning new things. Recently, I learned that a reason there are uses for crystals in my people's folk magic is that things such as Crystal healing originate from places in Asia. That is so fascinating! However, cultural appropriation is not the reason why we have it, it's more of a natural cultural exchange. Even so, it's important to know where it comes from. Apparently, because of our social statuses in America being so similar in those times, it wasn't unnatural for us to mingle and eventually pieces of our cultures were exchanged. I still want to know more, I crave knowledge like nothing else.
