This past October, social justice warriors were out in full force protesting against certain costumes. Apparently, if you dress up as someone from another culture, you are engaging in “cultural appropriation” and are therefore a walking microaggression. According to The Free Dictionary, the definition of “costume” is: a style of dress, including garments, accessories, and hairstyle, especially as characteristic of a particular country, period, or people. Isn’t a costume then, by its very definition, attire that represents something or someone other than yourself? Sigh.
