Kabyle people

Weakening of the territory’s link, but persistence of the territorial identities In order to understand the Kabyle collectives’ dynamics on the Internet, we need to look at the sociology of immigration. The Sayad (1977) showed that the first two generations of Kabyle immigrants in France were strongly connected with their country of origin. The relation with the territory of Algeria, Kabylia and more specifically with the village of origin was mainly characterized by the hope and the project of the grand return (Sayad, 1977). This visceral link with the territory is particularly illustrated by the funeral rite of repatriating deceased bodies to the village. These practices lead to a whole village organization within the immigrant community…

Also I think Silverstein’s discussion of the contrast between second and third generations is very interesting by revealing facts or voices that were really convincing. He makes an importance on the experience of Kabyle immigrants and their descendants in France, 3 noting how both civil war in Algeria and immigrant experiences in France have led to a new…

In Yona Wallach’s poem “Let Them Come” found on page sixty-six from the Collected Poems (1976), Wallach entices her readers with a poem about a woman who is having her last moments but wants her mourners to come and serve her. “Let them come and bring me foods,” this first line implies that she wants someone to serve her the last meal she will eat. The diction used and phrasing techniques lead the reader to believe that she is of importance. Specifically “let them come” as in she was okaying…

Why Positive Thinking Did Not Work for Me Many people believe positive thinking will lead a person to a perfect life; however, it is not completely true as it has its pros and cons. The reason why is because people request for things that they really want without really putting much effort into it and expect everything to fall into place. Today, society has gotten to the point where they make demands to God, and keep waiting to attain the stuff they asked or prayed for. For example, last year…

Sports can have a positive effect on society. They are one of the things that have made me the person I am today. Sports, mostly football and basketball, have shown me how to be a leader, how to stay active, how to persevere no matter how down you are , how it can help people in the community, and the ability to talk to people about the sports I love. Sports have no doubt been an influence for a long time, from ancient times to now. The leadership that comes with sports is a big deal in my…

Good physical, mental, emotional, social, and spiritual health can contribute to feeling great and having a wonderful outlook on life. People routinely take these aspects of health for granted. For example social health is important, having a group of friends to talk with and support each other makes for a strong foundation. Since moving out here in 2013 and not knowing a lot of people my wife and I have found it increasingly difficult to engage in a healthy social life, plus with having a…

is the presented self. This is how others around you will see you, it is your public image. Sometimes there is a pretty large gap in between the way a person views themselves, and the way others view them. A person can act rough and tough when in public, but when alone they could turn into a big crybaby. So, with that in mind, I am going to be discussing how others view me, how I view me, and how I came to know myself. I think the first thing people notice and perceive me as is quiet. Which…

four jobs, give or take depending on the amount of volunteers. The first job was to refill the soy and rice bins when empty one were brought in. The second job required four people to cart around two carts, two people on each, with soy and rice and give the people at the stations a refill when they ask for it. The third job was to run around and when a station was complete with a box of 36 bags you’d drop off a box and take their full one and give it to the person with the last job. The last job…

Margaret Mead states, “We are taught to celebrate and admire the one who gets the highest grades, the one voted most attractive or most likely to succeed. But while we often rejoice in the success of people far removed from ourselves—we tend to regard the success of people close at hand, within our small group, as a threat.” But is this the case in society? Success is seen as a source of happiness and security, a source of pride. It is thought of as a good thing to be successful. But success can…
