People from different cultures hardly interacted as brothers from the same geographical coverage. With civilization, the strictness of culture was highly degraded. Culture in the…

Introduction The word culture has many different definitions depending on what disciplines a person finds the definition.

nature, never exploiting their resources, a primitive species, a peaceful people, is a stereotype that is proven wrong by the paramount chiefdom of Cahokia. The stratified community, of what was in its day, a powerful unprecedented empire in North America, calls into question who Native Americans were believed to be. Cahokia, a Mississippian culture, is one of the first known empires started in North America, and Pax Cahokiana was the spread of Cahokian culture across the North American…

Influence argues against the appropriation of the culture by artists and corporations. An Alexie claim that “Nepotism is as common as oxygen” rests upon the assumption that “white poets have helped their white friends [and] brown poets have helped their brown friends because of nepotism.” By doing so, talented artists who do not belong to a certain group, face exclusion from widely spread publications, which in turn shrinks the pool of literary culture.
