Cancel culture, often seen as a modern phenomenon, has deep historical roots in practices like ancient Greek ostracism, medieval excommunication, and McCarthyism's blacklists. Today, #socialmedia empowers the public to call out injustices, impacting individuals and brands alike, as seen with Heineken, M&M’s, and Hasbro. While critics argue it stifles free speech, supporters view it as a means of holding #power to account.

This week's #reflexivepractice question has me thinking long and deeply about how the system views ownership, including intellectual property. How traditional knowledges, if acknowledged and used, usually then isn't shared with respecting traditional ethics and practices. They often are not shared with consideration of cultural norms. That is if traditional knowledge is acknowledged and respected.
Last Friday, I saw the band Ya Tseen (meaning 'be alive') headed by Nicholas Galanin, a multidisciplinary Indigenous American artist of Tlingit (Klinkit) and Unangax̂ (Oo-nun-gahx) descent. The show made me reflect deeply on the use of storytelling as traditional culture, not just the practice, but the stories of a culture that usually carries traditional knowledges. I know from previous projects unpacking traditional knowledges with communities to understand traditional forms of Disaster Risk Reduction. But what is the traditional practice of sharing these stories? If we share traditional knowledge, even with permission, shouldn't we also respect the practices of sharing traditional knowledge?

As we contribute so much to the cultural narrative (for good or bad) we have a responsibility (if we choose to accept it) to bend it away from fear, anger, division, and distrust. https://lnkd.in/eGzRupym

There is a thin but clear line between Culture and Stereotype, In this case, we talked about punctuality. The stereotype of punctual Germans, what shaped it, and what a cultural truth is. It starts by knowing the difference between the two. P.S.: This is a snippet of my talk with my friend Zina Amrani last week. We sat for one and a half hours and discussed various topics. I will be sharing the clips over the next weeks. #Culturalcompetency #culture #Stereotype
