Interview With John's Culture

This explains how an aspect as simple as a name can greatly affect a person's personality, and features through life. Having knowledge of the heritage that makes a person who they are will greatly improve possibilities on how to improve upon and give acclaim to

But in that odd time in the books. I got confused if there was any family existing in that society. Every night every house just like died, no lights, no noise, no laughing. Nothing! So I did not see any Family unit there. Probably the functions of family are staying in the same house, do everyone’s own business, your business is definitely not my problem. That’s such a negative relationship for people. People are getting more and more cold and offish. Everyone gets so selfish which is horrible.

I believe family is such an important part in this family’s life because they are all that each other has got. They hold close to their family because they have been through so much and they see death all around them, so they see the importance of their family. They also are taught from a very young age to respect their elders in the family because they have seen much more and know much more about all aspects of life. They are viewed as wise and knowledgeable and the young family members cherish the opportunity to learn from them. In the movie Gran Torino one

II. (Reveal Topic): Today, I will be talking about a culture that many of you probably have not been introduced to, Hmong culture.

There are many different people living in this world with different culture diversity, and ways of making a living. American Samoans are one of these countries with different

Even with the lack of having an emotional connection with his family, he was still considered to be a family man. It was up to the family to understand that his role of good provider trumped everything else.

At first I thought it was because they were mostly poor and couldn’t afford to live one family per house, but after reading this book I realized that it was mostly because they can. The respect they have for one another to fulfill his or her duties in the household makes them bond very close as almost the parts to a very complicated machine that would not be able to operate without one of its parts.

We are all different, we come from different parts of the world, and our culture is different from one another. Be proud of who you are, don’t be ashamed of what you are. There is nothing wrong with adopting other cultures.

Family is important in every culture, it shapes people and makes them who they are.

My life experiences with different cultures began in my hometown, when Prairie Island Tribal Council members educated students about their culture through lectures, dance, and band performances. This allowed me to appreciate my Mdewakanton classmates’ culture. My exposure to different cultures expanded during an internship at a medical examiner’s office, because death is universal. I learned being culturally respectful and sensitive begins by listening to their stories and experiences before answering their questions honestly and reassuring them the deceased would be treated with respect. As I traveled to rural Honduras on a medical brigade and as a student studying abroad in Italy and Germany, I realized by listening and observing without judgement, I began to understand the cultures. In addition, I discovered generalizations of a culture give an incomplete view and I cannot assume I understand a culture. Instead, individuals are unique based on experiences as well as their culture.

One’s happiness often depends on an individual being independent from their culture's impulses. In the book Their Eyes Were Watching God by Zora Neale Hurston, a woman, Janie, falls in love multiple times with various men until she feels happily fulfilled. Hurston uses kind similes that show how Janie’s culture does not have an affect on her beliefs. Janie says, “…mah love didn’t work lak they love, if dey ever had any. Then you must tell em’ dat love ain’t somethin’ lak uh grindstone dat’s de same thing everywhere and do de same thing tuh everything it touch. Love is lak de sea...it’s different with every shore” (Hurtson 191). Hurston uses similes in order to show the audience that an individual’s happiness and beliefs can differ from their

John as we know today was one of the twelve apostles of Jesus. He was also the brother of James, who was also an apostle. John was the son of Zeebee and of Salome. His father was a fisherman while living in Bethsaida in Galilee on the border of the lake Gennesareth. John's mother was one of many women who gave to the maintenance of Jesus Christ. John's parents were very good people, they loved God and his son. It is said that john and his brother James were fishing when Jesus came and chose them. They were soon known as the fishers of men. The John of whom I am talking about is John the Evangelist.

An example of how her family values each other is her description of the conventions and norms of her family. They are thoroughly supportive of one another, attending every graduation, baby shower, birthday, and house warming party. Her father and siblings have burial plots together so that they are never separated. Life is lived with everyone being connected and concerned for not only each person’s well-being, but happiness as well. She says her “relatives form an alliance that represents a genuine and enduring love of family…”

My partner was Fiorella and from her I learned many things about her culture: College life, family tradition, religion, meaning of

Growing up, Sunday nights were reserved for extended family dinners at my grandparents’ house. Loud music, foreign-looking food, and unusual dancing were commonplace at these gatherings. My family is Chaldean—a small Catholic minority originating from northern Iraq with ties to ancient-Mesopotamia. The dinners provided me with a gateway, allowing me to bridge my everyday experience with my ancestral culture. It also helped to establish a rapport between myself and other Chaldean students at my school.
