Simu Liu began a conversation about cultural appropriation not too long ago. On the Canadian program Dragon’s Den, he called out a bubble tea manufacturer. Simu protested when Bobba, the manufacturer, said they improved bubble tea. They were neglecting the Asian roots of the drink, he argued. On TikHub, Simu discussed cultural appropriation and asked users to gently criticize.
He underlined the need to speak up about such problems without damaging anything. Simu urges people to respect and grasp many civilizations. His remarks started people debating how occasionally commercialized traditional dishes are distorted.
