Christmas in China was a wonderfully surreal form of cultural misappropriation- seeing misappropriation turned against cultural motifs from my own culture was fascinating. And makes me suspicious of your division between people of colour and white people; the Chinese can misappropriate just as well as we can.
(Ignoring for now the whole postmodern argument that the Modern Western Christmas is in itself a form of misappropriation)
