    2. IS CULTURAL APPROPRIATION A THING?

    This week is a discussion about cultural appropriation. There was a lot of people that were offended by KIMONO, Kim Kardashian's shape-wear brand. I will be weighing in my thoughts and opinions on cultural appropriation and the meaning. Is it a big deal? and also how it relates to fashion. This topic will also lead me to questions during this podcast like "Does fashion have any rules?" and "Can we prevent cultural appropriation?". Subscribe and rate and tweet me @VANMACPODCAST
