The identities I think about the most would be my race, ethnicity, national origin and socio-economic class. The 1st two I have thought about more and more in the last few countries especially in light of the publication of more and more African-Americans. As I see the media every day I feel like I am always reminded of it and how I have to always make sure that I act in a way that others cannot use to discredit my race or try to undermine my achievements to “oh you only got that…

In the beginning, there was only Adam and Eve, one people and one identity. At the eleventh generation came Noah’s and that was when we saw the first signs of different people groups. The people all spoke one language on the earth and when they tried to build a tower to reach God, God humbled them by confusing their language so that they did not understand each other and was forced to abandon the project.

Through government involvement and censorship, telenovelas can create “an ideal space where the ideal citizen is constructed and disseminated” (Estill 85). Racial…

People in the U.S have been discriminated against for a long time. Until the late 1800s, the inhabitants of the U.S have generally been Caucasians. Despite being a nation of immigrants, when people of different races such as Asian, Hispanics, or anything that isn’t Caucasians is involved, they are most likely going to be discriminated against simply for being different during those time. Presently, most people have come to understand more about the different sorts of race and ethnicity but not…

concern themselves about. The impact of this social institution is significant in our culture.

On a daily basis, food is a huge part of our life, (where) wondering what to eat (constantly) fills our thoughts. In modern culture, we have the ability to choose from a plethora of options, whether we feel more like (it is) Chinese or Italian food. In the western world, we are blessed with these options from (due to) the mass immigrations in past generations and the hybrid cuisines of new people coming in today. Although immigration has allowed us to be introduced to foreign cuisine, the…
