‘Everyone’s Ethnic’ was composed as a result of living life as an ‘Ethnic minority’ in the western world. I’ve heard the word ‘Ethnic’ being loosely thrown around my entire life, but it was only recently that I started seriously looking into archaic words that still plague our modern vocabulary and their definitions. This song, which I wrote while nursing a broken rib in Thailand, has the intention of highlighting the very word 'Ethnic' itself, which by the Oxford and Cambridge definitions, conveniently excludes Western culture of being Ethnic, thus furthering the widely accepted notion that the word is meant to describe people, or food, from non-western cultures. In fact, the official definitions, which remain in the dictionaries today, make an effort to diminish the value of non-Western cultures and races by not only mentioning the unrelated topic of ‘race’, but also by stating, with particularly demeaning wording, that the word describes a ‘sub-group’ within a ‘dominant’ culture.
I will personally see to it myself (and have already started a petition, see below), that the definitions in the dictionaries are changed, the goal being that future generations will not feel less or more worthy of living in this world, wherever they happen to be.
Why is a curry considered ethnic food, but a steak pie isn’t?
