Culture has a paramount influence in everyday day life from the way people dress to way people gather food to how someone greets others. It united group of people based on their share ideas, perceptions, and knowledge (Blanco). Although some cultures share similar aspect, some can vary differently in their customs and norms. An example would a clan known as Nacirema whose culture would be described by outsiders as extreme and sadistic. Their culture consists of unique ritual, strong believe in magical essences, but how different does it vary from the American Culture?

The diversity of culture is an incredible notion. It is unfathomable how the anatomy of the human race is so similar, yet so different in the behaviors and ideas that take place. The two primary cultures I am focusing on throughout this essay are the differentiation between popular culture, and indigenous culture. I will also make the point of folk culture, and how it has slowly transformed itself from its self sufficiency, to relying more on the ways of popular culture.

As Mahatma Gandhi said, “No culture can live, if it attempts to be exclusive” (Mahatma). Our culture identifies who we are and how we behave in social environments and provides us with a foundation in which to live our lives and raise our families. Each individual culture has certain customs and courtesies that are important. Exposure to the cultures of others can be intimidating and can leave a person feeling confused and unsure about how they fit in (Schaefer 60). Culture shock can leave a person feeling out of place in an unfamiliar culture (Schaefer 60). Our diverse societies demand understanding and acceptance of other cultures.

In 1869, the first Japanese Immigrants arrived in California in an attempt to escape the Meiji restoration, which forced them out of their houses. Many joined them in America after that, forming the first generation of Japanese-Americans, the Issei. Those immigrants then formed families and gave birth to the second generation, the Nisei. However, the cultural differences between the Issei and the Nisei, who were all born in America, created an important gap between the two generations. The short story “Seventeen Syllables”, through the relation between Rosie, a Nisei young girl, and Tome Hayashi, her mother, is a good depiction of this issue.

In this paper I will begin by defining personal culture and national culture. After, I will then elaborate my own personal and national culture. I will continue to talk about the subject with the person that I have chosen for my cultural group, my mother, and I will identify her personal and national culture. Lastly, I will talk about my own personality and how it has a connection with my own natural culture; knowing this is important, it lets us know who we are, and how we act with people who are from different cultures.

In the third grade, I remember bringing noodles to lunch, and all of my white classmates looking at me strangely. Little did I know, Americans did not bring noodles to lunch, but rather simpler things, such as peanut butter and jelly sandwiches and lunchables. Although my introduction to the western culture was nothing as close to the Ibo people’s introduction to the western culture, it is clear that different cultures often have a hard time understanding the customs of another culture. Okonkwo’s response to new western influences spreading through his clan depicts how the introduction of different cultures can lead to disagreement because of contrasting religious values and customs.

For instance, the articles illustrate the colorful and extravagant paintings and potteries of the Native American culture. The pictures in the articles depict the lifestyles of Native Americans back in the days in comparison to today’s form of dressing. The Native Peoples Magazine can attract just about any individual who desires to learn more about a culture before visiting. It showcases the different dishes and places that an individual will encounter if he or she ever plans to visit. Thus, a result may be that an individual may familiarize himself/herself with the way of life and adapt to what could possibly be meaningful to the Native Americans. The Native Peoples Magazine also depicts traditional cars of the culture and books of known authors. Without even realizing, one might feel integrated into the Native American culture without physically being present.

People no longer use the term “Japanese American” in today's society. Instead, they are no longer thought as a separate group and are incorrectly categorized as “Asian American”, along with Vietnamese American, Chinese American, etc. Japanese Americans have an extremely unique background in terms of their origins, history, and struggle with racialization. Like many ethnic groups, Japanese Americans have been subjected to many different portrayals throughout American history. Even though cultural separation and suspicion are deemed as immoral, such practices toward them were thought to be necessary by the American Government. For a good amount of time, they suffered from racial hostility and violence. Now, in an age where cultural diversity

There are many different types of cultures, languages, and religion out in this enormous planet we call earth. It was quite hard to decide on what cultural group to study, since there are a wide range of interesting cultures. The one group of individuals that has always interested me was the Native American culture. Though there is a wide range of Native American cultural groups as well. The one group that I wanted to pinpoint and what interested me the most was, the Cheyenne Native American Tribe. Not only were they so close to home but they were different from most of the other tribes.

In Hawaii, the state oversees all schools, and separates them by complex area. Data is usually specified by specific school, complex, island, or the overall state. On the island of Hawaii, complex areas differ, but between 52 percent and 88 percent of students are economically disadvantaged (State of Hawaii Department of Education, 2014). For example, in the Pahoa complex that I currently work in, 88 percent of students are economically disadvantaged (State of Hawaii Department of Education, 2014). Additionally, differing by complex, between 6 percent and 23 percent of the students are English language learner (ELL) students (State of Hawaii Department of Education, 2014). Also, according to the U.S. Department of Education (n.d.), in the 2012-2013 school year, there were 184,760 students in the state of Hawaii and of that 0.5 percent were American Indian and Alaskan Native, 33 percent were Asian, 2.2 percent were Black, 8.3 percent were Hispanic, and 13.9 percent were White. However, this data did not specify the Hawaiian or Pacific Island percentage of students or those choosing more than one race. Based on U.S. census data, which closely matches student ethnicity data, the Hawaiian and Pacific Islander alone population was 10 percent and the more than one race was 23.1 percent in 2013 (U.S. Census Bureau, 2015).

“Sometimes it is impossible to know where you are headed without reflecting on where you came from. Understanding your heritage, your roots and your ancestry is an important part of carving out your adventure.” When reading from Close Range and A Radiant Curve the reader gets the feeling that both of these women have strong ties to their heritage, their roots. It is evident in Luci Tapahonso’s poem “The warp is even: taut vertical loops”. Tapahonso wants the reader to feel close to her family as she feels. “Suddenly I miss my father to. How he savored such mornings (Tapahonso 3).”
