Back in the '80s I lived in the Southwest U.S. We were into Reggae. There was a Native American Reggae band. There was a Reggae band with a guitar player from Iceland. Reggae was a unifying element. Branches from that unification continue today in the next generation. I formed friendships which I treasure today. I do not feel guilty about appropriating Jamaican music into the Desert Hippie Culture.
God thinks it's fun to confuse primates. Larsen's God!
