In Cairo I bought several cotton caftan dresses, nicely embroidered, long-sleeved and ankle-length but cool in the North African heat. “My culture is not your goddamn prom dress!” blasted one ethnic Chinese complainant, retweeted 42,000 times last I looked. But there was Daum, barely 18, getting pummelled for her wardrobe choice and defending herself on Good Morning America. Naturally, the aforementioned prom cheongsam morphed into babble about imperialism and colonialism and “triggering” of, you know, bad feelings over historical oppression. Keziah Daum thought she simply looked pretty in a cheongsam.
