I think its about cultural pride -- you have something that you value that sets you apart from the dominant culture. If they appropriate it (and change it), then you lose that piece of pride.
I don't really understand the whole pride-in-being-a-minority thing. Imperialists go to great lengths to spread their culture. Why wouldn't minorities want to spread theirs?
