Pretendians are a big problem in our communities. We have many that do not know their culture and they come in and destroy it even more, we are allowed to be selfish about this or we'll have some fake made up ish that has nothing to do with the real thing. This is about cultural genocide.

I see what you’re saying. There definitely would be a problem with speaking as an authority on a culture (like contributing a recipe to a cookbook, for example) without an authentic connection to that culture. But it is another thing to just say that you have the ancestry, and a superficial connection, based on your family’s word.
