Cultural Appropriation, Friday 8/23, 2nd Period
“Today,” Sam said, “we shall be enjoying a wide assortment of appropriate culture here in the British Museum!” Appropriate, appropriated. Same thing, right?
The students might hear muted meeping coming from the museum's vaulted ceiling. And John Williams-style theme music.
“You shall be exploring the museum on your own today,” Sam continued, giving the ceiling a very suspicious look. Where was Beaker?
"Meeeeeeeeeeee--" Beaker cried, swinging down on a whip he'd gotten from somewhere and wearing the fedora that had been next to the whip, and right into a priceless artifact from somewhere that definitely wasn't the British Isles. "Meep meep mee!"
You cannot lift that, Beaker.
“Exploring the museum!” Sam repeated. “Not stealing from the museum! Unhand that this instant!”
But Beaker wanted to return this ten foot solid granite statue to Egypt, Sam! Just…give him a second. And maybe a pallet jack. This might be an excellent time to disappear, students, while your teachers are distracted…
“Beaker, no! This belongs in a museum! This museum!”
Where had Joe from Legal come from and why was he holding a stack of papers?
“Oh, I’m getting a note,” Sam said, clearing his throat and beginning to read. “Oh dear.”
"MEEP MEEP MEEEEEEE--"
In case you've ever wondered what "Vive la révolution " sounded like when Beaker said it.
“It appears that certain things may not belong in this museum!” Sam was shocked. Dismayed. Horrified. Being handed another paper to read by Joe from Legal. “Of course the British would do such a thing…oh no! Students! Go explore! Try to foil Beaker if you can but do try not to explode yourselves or any art.”
Sam needed a moment to himself to come to terms with the contents of the notes from Legal.
