It is actually illuminating to have Shriver illustrate so clearly not why cultural appropriation doesn't exist, as was her intention, but why it is problematic.
The appropriation did not cure the fair's financial woes, as fewer than 400,000 were sold at the premium price, and some 2,000,000 were released into circulation, where they remained as late as the 1950s.
This appropriation did not allow studies of the potential environmental or human toxicity of fracking compounds or of the potential for air pollution although it is not clear why the U.S. EPA does not use other funding for such research.

But Amandla Stenberg, who plays Rue in the Hunger Games and whose video about cultural appropriation, Don't Cash Crop on My Cornrows, went viral in 2015, has been a big champion of the idea – even donning a sweatshirt with the term emblazoned on it.
Stenberg, who appeared as Rue in "The Hunger Games," made a video earlier this year about cultural appropriation, "Don't Cash Crop on my Cornrows".
Lynn Rasic, a spokeswoman for Mr. Pataki, said that "the appropriations do not fully recognize the risks to New York".
The "facts" presented by the department's witnesses who were seeking appropriations do not accord with those contained in its own publications.
Appropriation, then, does not require the skirting copyright laws.
