Original Note:
This is not an example of cultural appropriation. The woman in the photo is not satirizing Palestinian culture or behaving in a manner that Palestinians would find disrespectful. Wearing a keffiyeh appropriately, as is displayed here, is a common way to express solidarity. https://www.britannica.com/story/what-is-cultural-appropriation https://www.kufiya.org/15-ways-to-wear-a-keffiyeh-shemagh-photos/
