White women's burrito shop is forced to close after being hounded with accusations it was 'culturally appropriating Mexican food and jobs' Alicia Dominguez 20 May at 1247-e Christina Sommerso Awww, so you nice ladies stole hard-working and low-income Mexican women's tortilla recipes and are now turning a proft. That's not white basic privilege at all, #disgusting #kooksburritos #portland This cannot go on!There must be armed guards & great walls separating cultures from one another. No sharing.No appropriating Two white women, Kali Wilgus (right) and Liz LC Connelly (left), who opened a taco truck in Portland after taking a trip to Mexico, have been forced to close it amid accusations of cultural appropriation. For the first few months, the weekend pop-up shop, Kooks Burritos (top inset), was a smash hit. It gained so much popularity, a local weekly newspaper decided to profile the entrepreneurial duo. But the trouble started after they gave a series of quotes to a local newspaper, leading to the accusations against them. The duo was flooded with negative feedback on social media (bottom insets) and from other outlets, and eventually they closed the store and all its online accounts.

Jordan B Petersorn @jordanbpeterson One appalling self-righteous persecutor wrote this piece. Oh no. Two women wanted to make a living. Kill them, portlandmercury.com/blogtown/2017.
Christina Sommers @CHSommers Help! My favorite restaurant in #Portland is on a cultural appropriation hit list for "culinary cis-white supremacy"
