Ethnic groups in Pakistan

The interview aimed to address the question of what role language plays in the ethnic identities of second generation immigrants. While there is a broad body of work on the subject of migration and language spanning several fields, including population studies and sociolinguistics, much of the associated literature is based on quantitative studies. For instance, Rumbaut (2012) used survey data to examine immigrant families’ language retention rates, while Cherciov (2012) and Medvedeva (2012)…

especially in black minority ethnic backgrounds. Furthermore, I was able to use my linguistic skills in spreading awareness of optical health, since statistical data has shown that those of black minority ethnic groups exhibit greater risk of sight loss. The most cause for this is due to language barrier since they are not aware of early signs which could prevent sight loss and thus I hope I had an impact in spreading the message of sight loss in black minority ethnic groups. I have gained vital…

non-anglo-saxon groups of people on many occasions. Although we are now known as a country that accepts all cultures and races, we haven’t always been deserving of that status. During World War I, World War II, and post-war times we treated other ethnic groups unfairly and because of this Canada does not deserve its multicultural reputation. Canada’s army limited who could fight, be treated with respect, and be acknowledged in the army during World War I, depending on their ethnic background.…

ask you is what your name is and where are you from. By questioning they want to define if you can friends with them or not. As authors said: “Classifying and labeling human beings… is a way to distinguish who is included and who is excluded from a group” (Kirk and Margo Okazawa-Rey). I do not understand why people have stereotypes of race and gender. A person can hurt you even if she/he is of the same race, when person opposite to you can help in critical moment. In my opinion it does not…

truth. By critically analyzing sociological theories together with implemented public policies and societal worldviews towards racism and ethnicity, this essay analyses Australia’s social fabric and competing historical perspectives of racial and ethnic diversity and discernment. Derived from the French word égal, egalitarianism, is a mythical ideology (Kolb, 2008, p. 661). In view of that, the egalitarianism doctrine favours western industrial societies as equals with equivalent…
