Cultural Identity Wrap up

This chapter was very interesting to me , especially about the music. Basically, in America , there is lot of different people from other country and they are own culture but they get into American culture little by little. This is like Melting pod" to me. Even though, people they can keep their own culture but they have to get use to Americans as well because they live here. The other thing is every second generation in America, they don't really concern about own national culture. So therefore, i think people, who came from other country in America, they should keep their culture and teach the second generation as well.

Elsa's cultural identity wrap up

In this chapter I learn a lot of things. I learn that melting pot means people in this country will communicate with others that don’t look like them.Salad Bowl means a diverse group of people come to this country would keep their own culture.I prefer melting pot I think people should communicate with others that don’t look like them.In “They’ve Got to Be Carefully Taught,”I learned that it’s too early to teach 3 or 4 years old about diversity. I think they don’t understand it. I think people should communicate with people that don’t look like them and learn their culture and learn more things instead of separate them from their friends.I read “People like us” and I learned that people only fit in with the people that look like them. They would not open their eyes to see a big world but to stay in their little world.Something I still don’t understand from this chapter is why talking to other people don’t look like them is like killing them.Creating a poster about my cultural identity was interesting because I get to show my culture and let them know what kind of person I am.

Cultural Identity the most important thing. I learned how the music influence some people for example what kind the music and the lyrics proyect the message. Also what is the most popular singer at the moment, and the fashion too.

CULTURAL IDENTITY WRAP UP

cultural Identity: This most important thing I learnt about the unit of cultural identity. It was
about the factors that affect people self images such as one self apperance and cultural looks(attires). It affect people in such ways ,biologically this simply talk about the story" DEFINE AMERICAN " a reflextion to cultural identitiy. In the case the mother and her daughter are from the same cultural tribe, but the daugnhter cultural identitiy is quite different from her mother. The mother is used to the tradtional cultural attires,but the daughter is not, they might be realted by blood,but might have different traits among them.The daughter prefer dressing in a modern way not a cultural way.Finally this is trying to talk about parents trying to make their children have that same cultural identity which they do , but in not possible because of the popular and modern word we live today.
