In these days, I read about cultural appropiation, the article was about an specific group that grew in Bangkok calling Coconuts. This group is a kind of immitation from the Mexico's Gangster. Coconuts got some tatoos (Some of them asks to their wives about have new tatoos)and style from Mexican Ganster. According to the article the main difference between the coconuts and Ganster is that Coconuts have profession like police and teachers. Coconuts admitted that this style represents their lives, despite they don't really know what is the origin of this social crew, and what are the really characteristics of the gangstesr. I learn from the video and the article we have a lot of lifestyles to discover, for me was rare and new to know that exist this subcultures.
