The most bizarre thing is when I was in Oakland last year and saw a Black Lives Matter protest with no black people.
When I was in Oakland last year and the freeway was shut down and downtown near the police station where I worked was a mess due to the BLM protest, pretty much everyone was black. Where the hell where you?
The owners downfall was internet reaction to an interview where one said:
"I picked the brains of every tortilla lady there in the worst broken Spanish ever, and they showed me a little of what they did.. "They told us the basic ingredients, and we saw them moving and stretching the dough similar to how pizza makers do before rolling it out with rolling pins. They wouldn't tell us too much about technique, but we were peeking into the windows of every kitchen, totally fascinated by how easy they made it look. We learned quickly it isn't quite that easy."
"The problem, of course, is that it's unclear whether the Mexican women who handed over their recipes ever got anything in return. And now those same recipes are being sold as a delicacy in Portland.
A spreadsheet of “white-owned appropriative restaurants” in Portland has since been created that includes many restaurants in the city, with recommendations for nearby alternatives owned by people of color. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets...2Ie8/htmlview#
Libs turn on their own, these two young women didn't have a clue that they'd crossed the line with their comments.
I lived in San Antonio for a few years when I was younger, and I have never even seen Carne Guisada on the menu of any "Mexican" restaurant anyplace else.
Yea, that is just dumb. I guess this makes any professionally trained chef a "cultural appropriator" since they generally go through French/Italian/Mexican/etc style cooking in their coursework. Or any chef who has ever traveled somewhere to learn the ins and outs of some time of local cooking.
