Some call me Jake and others call me Jacob. Either or will do. I am Jacob Green and to briefly describe myself in four words is very challenging, but in those four words involving my heritage, background, and ethnicity I would say Irish, rural, white, and talkative. However, everyone is unique coming from different backgrounds and having various ethnicities, everyone is peculiar in their own way. What makes up a person is who they are, it is their identity.

However, I do believe my identities fit into a culturally competent behavioral health plan because of cultural disparities in health care.…

America is working towards becoming more open and equal, but as a society, America is not as advanced as it should be. Laws have been changing throughout time but the racism and oppression has not simmered. While large scale demonstrations of racism such as bombings and hate group riots don’t occur on a daily basis, small scales race…

office it wouldn’t probably be any changes because he did poorly . His decisions had good and bad effects, but don’t get me wrong he did some things that affected America in a good way.
