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.

Are kids allowed to be proud of their culture if they haven't yet supported, extended, or transformed it? Or is there some age minimum for pride?

Kids play at mummies and daddies and shopkeepers and what have you long before they're capable of being these things...

You think kids can't feel real social emotions like pride?

I'm sure they can and do, but they can also have opinions too. How far into the world does the value of such pride or opinion extend?

The subjective lives of kids are just as important as those of adults. Genuine, merited pride is an intrinsic good whoever experiences it. It doesn't need to extend into the world.

I missed spotting the obvious response - important to whom?

Important to them, just as all sentient experience is important to the sentience experiencing it.

Of course - that is the obvious answer to the obvious question. OK, but that doesn't address the level of importance to a culture.
