We need to do a better job of teaching people to approach community groups with respect and as themselves. I'm a severe introvert so it took me way too long to figure that out but it's really that simple. There are no shortcuts, be nice to people, ask respectful questions, befriend them, and suddenly you're invited to the party/dinner.

This is 100% true. Usually the line between cultural appropriation and sharing/taking part in the culture is based on how respectful the person approaches the subject.
