text: John: Hi Thabo, we really liked you fashion show
  Thabo: thanks! I'm glad you liked it
  Mary: it was brilliant!
  Caroline: Am I right that you used some ethnic elements?
  Caroline: or at least things inspired by them?
  Thabo: yes, I use traditional blankets of the Basotho people
  John: because you're from Lesotho, am I right?
  Thabo: yes, I am, from Maseru, but I spent a lot of time in the countrysides as a child
  Thabo: but the motives from the traditional Basotho blankets are very popular now
  Thabo: appropriated even by Louis Vuitton, unfortunately
  Caroline: Why unfortunately?
  Caroline: is it not promoting Basotho culture in the world?
  Thabo: ok, but what do the Basotho people have from that?
  Thabo: I think we need cooperation instead of appropriation
  Thabo: appropriation becomes stealing in this case
  Thabo: the things are neither designed not produced in Lesotho
  John: I get your point
  Thabo: I want to let Basotho people to tell their stories through their garments and clothing
  Caroline: this is an amazing project
target: Mary, Caroline and John where at Thabo's fashion show. Thabo used ethnic elements from Basotho tribe. He's from Maseru, Lesotho and he wants to promote Basotho culture. Louis Vuitton used Basotho blankets in his collection.
