Real cultural appropriation -- that's when someone is proud of his culture despite having done nothing to support it, extend it or transform it: a message to the far right.

Similar to what I was thinking. Seems to me we cannot claim pride in the good amongst our forebears without also bearing the burden of guilt for their misdeeds...or perpetuating their resentments, etc. Problematic.
This is a tricky issue. Some groups demand that other groups feel collective shame without being allowed to feel collective pride. Others, the reverse. Need to challenge the double standard: either we can feel both collective pride and shame (about different things), or neither.

both collective pride and shame -unfortunately, things always come at pairs; ex.: 'Desperate battle demands desperate means.' W. Shakespeare, Romeo and Juliet.
