Culture, Race, Ethnicity, Religion, And Family

I am apart of the Hispanic culture. In our family we were raised with numerous parts of this culture. We were raised with this culture because my mothers side of the family is Hispanic. There are many parts of a culture that can define you. Family, traditions, food, music, etc., can show who you and your family are culturally.

The first time my mom went over to my dads house for dinner it showed how different their cultures are. They all sat down for dinner when my mom noticed there were no forks, confused she asked where she could get them. My dad and his family all laughed and proceeded to eat their dinner without forks and instead with tortillas. Later on, I was born into this mix of american and hispanic culture. My parents have shaped the cultural identity I have from the type of food I eat, my hobbies, and the values I have.

Cultural identity can often be formed through socializing in one's family, community, and larger culture, as well as individual exploration and reflection. It gives people an outline for interpreting their surroundings and has a significant impact on their attitudes, behaviors, and interpersonal

Diverse cultural, ethnic, and social backgrounds function as sources of person, family, and community values. These backgrounds serve as a function of being the base of the foundation that makes up a family, community, or a person’s values. A culture shapes how people experience the world. It allows them to be a part of a community through interrelation of beliefs, experiences, and traditions that they share through their backgrounds. Social backgrounds influence how they might view their life values and how they see others. Cultural, ethnic, and social backgrounds affects how someone or a group may view and experience communicational, nutritional, and spiritual values along with the rest of the 12 domains of Purnell’s model. Experiencing

How do you feel race, ethnicity, social class, and religion has shaped you and your family lives? Whether we take notice or not these aspects of our childhood and today’s life contributed to our viewpoint about different parts of the world. Also, the way your family interacted with you and others is determined in a way by these key points. My race, social class, ethnicity, and religion have helped mold me into the young adult I am, beliefs, and values I hold today because my understanding of who I am provides me with the ability to understand others backgrounds.

Does being born connected to a certain race, class and culture define you as a person and the way you should or shouldn’t live your life. Does being in a certain class make you have class? In the paper I plan to give examples of how race, class and culture affected the African American culture.

How did race, gender or class evolve in America in economic and social terms? Was race or class most important in shaping Colonial America and how do they interact today? Has the very idea of 'Class ' become almost synonymous with race (or ethnicity)?

Thus far the discussions of how race, culture, and socioeconomic status plays a role in education has been a very enlightened one. Up until now I really have never thought about how many things play a part in the education a child receives and how a teacher’s career is also impacted. Like many others I assume, education is something that we all receive and never think about it in great detail. For me going to school each day was just a routine and the end goal was to graduate high school and go onto college, always thinking that it was that easy for all others. Not until now have I discovered that it is not that easy and that there are many obstacles in the way of a good education.

In all parts of the world people have been speaking their minds since the beginning of time in every single race/ethnicity. People have been rioting for the right for equality for as long as time. If it was not one race it was another. In the 1960’s riots had sprung in Los Angeles, Cleveland, San Francisco, Chicago, Newark, and Detroit. All for the same reason that people are beginning to riot about in today’s world for Equality no matter what race, religion, gender, or sexual orientation.

I would like to discuss the issue of race and ethnicity in sports. We will also explore the bigger questions. How much does race and ethnicity matter in the sports world? Are certain races dominant in certain sports? Is there a difference in how we treat players based on race and ethnicity? Does it matter? I would like to answer some of these questions and gain a better understanding of how much of a part they play.

Diversity is increasing in the western countries rapidly, hence it leads to discrimination in race, ethnicity and gender. The question that arises is about fairness, appropriateness and equality between among races and ethnicities. The paper is focused determining whether offenders are discriminated because their race in parole decision making process. Parole is permanently or temporarily release from prison or from offender’s sentence. There are three types of parole releases: discretionary release, mandatory and unconditional release. The primary focus will be on discretionary release and what factors come to play when board members make a decision for a parole. There is no definite evidence that there is racism in parole because the results of the studies are complex. However, racial inequality exists throughout the justice system. Racial inequality exists in the process of the parole decision making because a race is discriminated when looking at the legal criteria for parole, assessing future risks to protect the community and when the system experiences overcrowding.

How you do in school, your social ability, and your awareness of others are all guided by how you identify. Identification in one’s gender, race, religion, social class, and ethnicity are all driving forces behind your future self. Identity is a crucial part of who you are, and in recent studies and experimentation researchers have been trying to identify new, untested factors that influence behavior in people. Although, in the past there hasn’t been a strong focus on the positive and negative effects of race and ethnicity, the conversation is now shifting to align itself with the current times. With America becoming increasingly more ethnically and racially diverse, we must take the time to see how certain factors, specifically race and ethnicity, impact a person’s development and behavior.

I feel that ethnicity is closely tied to family. My family is strongly Matriarchal with all special occasions such as birthdays (including the Queen of England’s) and Christmases celebrated at one of the Grandmother’s houses. Women play an important role in my family, they are the homemakers and the ones

Race, ethnicity, religion, class, sexual orientation, ability, and gender have all impacted my life in ways beyond my total comprehension. However, I can begin to identify some of the notable interactions and effects and discuss the ways in which they might present themselves in my teaching practices. I am a White, European American, Christian, and heterosexual female without a medically ascribed disability. I can say that ultimately (and unfortunately) my cultural and physical identity is considered normative within the United States and has placed me on a path of privilege and power. Throughout my life, though, I have been fortunate to encounter other cultural groups in very meaningful ways. My international, religious, and family experiences have shaped my worldview most notably.

The first, and arguably one of the most important characteristics of my cultural identity is my ethnicity. I come from a traditional Indian household, where both my parents grew up in India. My ancestors are from Tamil Nadu which is in the southeast
