1. My understanding in the differences between Teamsterville and Nacirema, is that the Teamsterville is considered to be a culture’s ethnic background or geographical location within a culture that has it own communication style and dialects, however Nacirema is defined by its speech practices and not by it’s geographical boundaries or ethnic background. 2.

I would consider mysef as a Nacirema, now that I am mature and knowledgeable of many things. Once situation is when I was dating my wife and I visited her job, which was at a middle school. The
Per Reporter: For the last 90 days the children have been living with their godmother (Trakenshia). Charlotte has been in Texas and does not want to care for the children. Trakenshia attempted to retrieve the children’s social security cards to enroll them in school. Trakenshia was successful with enrolling the children in North Panola schools. The social security department realized that the children were not with Charlotte and suspended the funds. Charlotte is originally from Memphis and has been using her cousin (Tamara’s) address to receive benefits. Latoya is diagnosed with ADHD and has been prescribed medication (unknown). Latoya needs her medicine to focus for school; however, she confirmed that Charlotte had been selling the pills.

Danville, PA is a wonderful place to live as it is a small town and it has several large employers to supply good jobs, however, more small businesses are needed in the downtown and surrounding area. Danville has a history of coal and iron manufacturing but following the peak of that, it had lost several businesses and the downtown became not as busy as it was. Unfortunately, this has remained so and Danville is in need of revitalization.

Founded in 1732, it was George Rogers Clark and his small army who took the largest land conquest in the revolutionary war away from the British in 1779. Greatly disadvantaged in number of troops compared to those inside Fort Sackville, Clark relied on the marksmanship of his troops and the ability to convince the British of a larger army to win the fort.

1. Using symbolic interaction theory as your guide, explain how the terms “aliens” and “illegals” helped shape public opinion/attitudes in Farmingville towards Latino day laborers. What do these words mean? How did these definitions influence perceptions and behaviors?
Alien in one definition is: “Too different from something to be acceptable or suitable,” and Illegal in one definition is “Not allowed by the law.” (Mirriam-Webster Dictionary) The words ‘Alien’ and ‘Illegal’ have inherent negative connotations. A person does not need to know the intimate or factual circumstances associated with those words to understand their symbolism. When those words are used to label the social group of undocumented Latino day laborers the inherent reaction is to see them in a negative way. The individuals become a stigmatized group. The people against undocumented immigrants in Farmingville saw the Latinos through the lens of the stigmatized group “illegal aliens.” They thus became

“Charles” by Shirley Jackson is a short story about her daily life with her kindergartner Laurie. Laurie, an older brother of one infant, started kindergarten as quite a mischievous little boy. Following his daily routine in the 1950’s, he attends his local kindergarten and returns home following the completion of the school day. Unexpectedly, he did not transition as smoothly into kindergarten as they would hope he had. In addition, there was a so-called juvenile delinquent creating a disturbance among the classroom. One can only infer that his reasons to misbehave were to obtain attention. To redeem himself from his sinful acts, he became the teacher’s helper.
In general my ‘normal code’ is a relatively unaccented english, with bits of utah sneaking in accordingly. My choice of language is not based on cultural heritage or identity. Simply a result of necessity and geographic placement. Unlike Anzaldua I despise the idea of relying my entire sense of self, personality, and pride on my language, I would gladly speak any language. Language (especially mine) is non-unique, easily translated, and not individualistic. Anyone from any
Tutankhamun’s tomb is the only royal tomb in Egypt to have escaped the discovery of looters and was discovered by archeologist Howard Carter.

There are no historical records explaining the cause or circumstances of his death, nor is there no positive evidence to suggest how he died. However, there are several theories and many of which have changed over the years.
Since I have never played a sport or been very athletic; the connections from the book Mind Gym by Gary Mack and lecture are more centered around my academic experiences as an undergraduate college student. In high school I didn’t have to work very hard to do well or succeed at what seemed to be difficult subject matter for my peers. I didn’t study very much, all I had to do was be present in class and listen. I made A’s and B’s with little to no effort. Now as a college student I find myself struggling to no avail. My freshman year I was clearly overconfident in a class that I had mastered in high school and thought that I didn’t need to work as hard, because I had seen the information already. Needless to say I failed
