Why aren't zombi stories cultural appropriation?

I think they started out as such, and now it's been so long, and they have morphed so much, that they've become something else.

I definitely differentiate between "zombi" and "zombie".

Zombi is Haitian.

Zombie is the other kind. What would we call it? If I say "Caucasion Western" that will offend black zombie movie lovers. "Western Civilization"? Hmmm.
