I think it is relevant to this discussion to mention the following interesting fact: in the city where I live, there is ample public funding channelled into paing very good wages to perfectly well-meaning well brought up white middle-class people who go into schools to teach young people about African music. And why not, you may say? But consider also the fact that in the same city are real African musicians reduced to working night shifts in bakeries, shelfstacking in warehouses etc, minimum wage type jobs. Now,this seems to be a relevant sort of situation to take into account while discussing the ramifications of people playing music from other cultures.
