Cultural Indentity

 

 

The concept the most impact me  of cultural diversity was the concept of melting pot and salad bowl. For example, European people who migrated to the United states assimilated the American culture and leave behind their own cultural identity. While people the opted for the salad bowl also assimilated the American culture but without forget of lose their own cultural identity. People like us reading ,also impact me because it show that  we as society always try our best to separate from others. Although, that we live in diversity country we always try to avoid live with people that are not from the same culture, religion or have the same economic potion like us.

                                       CULTURE DIVERSITY
   

 

      I learned from this class culture diversity means people who came from different place has a unique culture and different background, also I learned the different melting pot and salad bowl. some new arrive immigrants never loss their culture. When they came to America. they keep like melting pot. for instance they eat like their culture foods and wear clothes, also they celebrate holidays by their culture. for instance like country people use date Ge'ze. its one of the most ancient in the world still used by Ethiopia church. this kind of language, we used on celebrate day, such as new-year , charismas. on the other hand some people when they arrived from various culture American changed their culture like melting pot.

 

ETHIOPIA TRADITIONAL FOOD AND DRINK

 

 

Ethiopia has a unique traditional food and drink. for instance wet(beef, eggs,onion) this kind of food is very spicy.it can not eat anybody. it mixed called by my language berebre(spicy). on the other hand is called injera(bread) its accoblished with spicy food. the drinks called bunna(coffee). this kind of drink mixed with boil water, also prepare just by women. the women wears dress traditional cloths and get ready. on the other hand is  called tej. this kind of drink its like alchol. most time prepare on wedding time or something celebrate. because its difficulty to prepare and takes long time.




 

Living a cultures community

          

          An American community is big culture diversity. The important things I learned to accept and respect the cultures from different background, language, clothing, and religions by living a multicultural country. I grew in china, by then I came to the U.S. I am alreadly  living American for four years, I was never care about my own culture, and I only cared about how I could fit in American life. In fact, I felt struggled and ashamed, I tried extremely hard to ignore my own culture that were surrounding me. After this class, I think there is agreement about accept and respect Multiracial cultures in U.S. In fact, I feel I have responsible to identity my own culture by living in the U.S. community, also I accept and respect others cultures that the cultures diversity is becoming part of my life. I also realized that we are  the " same" peoples like we alway are .

My Cultural Identity

            I am going to introduce my poster about My Cultural Identity.
         My original country is China, so for the Chinese part I posted a picture of dim sum. Dim sum is a kind of famous Chinese food in America, and it come from Guangdong, my hometown. In Guangdong, people usually eat din sum for breakfast. Also, Cantonese would like invite others to have a breakfast, they will eat dim sum, drink tea, chat, and have a good time. That why din sum has many kinds and so nice. As a result, dim sum has a special meaning for Cantonese.
         The place influenced me a lot is my high school. I received education, lived, and made friends there. The picture is a statue of Confucius in my school. Confucius is the symbol of Chinese education.    
         For the American part, I gave an example of Thanksgiving Day. That is my first time enjoy the Thanksgiving Day in America. I took these pictures at my aunt’s home, I ate turkey, got gifts from family, and go shopping. I deeply felt the American culture on it.
         The other thing I post is fitness. Different from China, fitness is a healthy lifestyle in America. When I was in China, I did not like to go to gym. However, after I came to this country, I became to enjoy this healthy lifestyle.                    
           Besides Chinese culture, I was influenced many American culture after I came here.
      

          

kurdistan, my country is land of kurds. We have colourfull culture, special foods, like dolmeh, barbasel and spacial traditiona cloths and holidays like newroz.

Kurdish traditional clothes are an ongoing part of kurdish culture. Our clothes never gone out of fashion. We wear our clothes in special holidays like newroz. Kurdish clothes are colourful  and beautiful. 

Cultural Identity

    I learned about Cultural diversity is important because our country, workplaces, and schools more and more of various cultural, racial, and ethnic groups. We can learn from one another, but first we must have a level of understanding about each other in order to facilitate collaboration and cooperation. Learning about other cultures helps us understand different perspectives within the world in which we live, and helps dispel negative stereotypes and personal biases about different groups. Furthermore, this diversity makes our country a more interesting place to live, as people from diverse cultures contribute language skills, new way thinking, new knowledge, and different experiences.
