"Isn't F/SF a white person's genre and anyone else who uses it is practicing cultural appropriation?"
When SF first became a genre a fairly large fraction of the authors involved in turning it into what it was were Jewish at a time when Jews were not counted as white so really the answer to that would be somewhere between "not exactly" and "obviously not".
