If you are actually involved in urban culture instead of imitating things to make it suitable for another scene ( white suburbia) you can do certain things, like there is a difference between the police doing their interpretation of reggae from their british background and someone who happens to be white but is totally involved in the reggae scene and is respected by the scene. If the police was to act like they were part of the jamaican scene and pretend to have kingston accents and stuff that would be insulting. This is kind of the difference between Snow , who learned to make reggae growing up in a part of toronto where reggae was a big thing , and in the social economic conditions that make the themes of the genre relatable and Vanilla Ice , who got into the rap scene because it was cool and he wanted to be cool and make a lot of money.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
