\u2022 At the BFI this week: Where to begin with Jerzy Skolimowski<\/a>, and 10 overlooked British horror films of the 1970s<\/a>. Both lists include Skolimowski’s excellent The Shout<\/em><\/a> (1978).<\/p>\n

Nor does preventing whites from wearing locks or practicing yoga challenge racism in any meaningful way. What the campaigns against cultural appropriation reveal is the disintegration of the meaning of \u2018anti-racism\u2019. Once it meant to struggle for equal treatment for all. Now it means defining the correct etiquette for a plural society. The campaign against cultural appropriation is about policing manners rather than transforming society.<\/p>\n
