    Dreadlocks started from either India or Egypt. How about all these black people stop appropriating from other cultures since they care about appropriation so much?

    So the Native American stole the Mohawk from the Egyptians and the Indians???

    As they say in 80's rap "BITTERS"


    For the uncultured, Bitters = Culture Appropriation. Look it up!

    Native Americans don't scream about cultural appropriation, now do they?

    If anything black people are the ones who did cultural approptiation because they took dreadlocks they saw from Egyptians and indians and pretend it belongs to them alone and if anybody else wears dreadlocks, they're trying to be black. The more ridiculous thing is here you have an Asian being accused of cultural appropriation when Asians (India is part of Asia) are the ones who invented it.

    Do you even realize how bad Clutchfans was when the LOF were here?
    Rockets fans supported Lin, it's when his rat like fanbase joined the site that we took it upon ourselves to disinfect it.

    For this announcer, do we even know he was just reading from a prompter screen? if so he got fired for someone's terrible racist joke.

    Native Americans have a bigger gripe, land appropriation and murder.

    So what? These people still consider themselves Egyptians and are so far removed from the black people who originated in Africa and got brought over to the US as slaves. Or are you saying Lebron, Kanye and Harden trace their roots to Egypt?

    I’m saying there were black Egyptians.

    Why are you talking about the Trans Atlantic Slave Trade? Africans brought to this of the world were primarily of Western and Central African origin....although a handful were East or Northern Africans.

    I feel like you are referencing the Maafa but know little to nothing about it....
