Final Paper  Before going into college, I was told that all students must take a course which is called self and community. At first, I didn't understand why it was required to take it and what was the purpose? After learning that Self and Community is a course where we learn about the issues that’s been going on in the world. Self and Community is to design to express our ideas, and to others when we're on campus. So, every day in class we have discussions on different topics, and all of them were

Which Social Class There are three main social classes represented in 1984 by George Orwell, the Inner Party, the Outer Party and the Proles. While 1984 is a work of fiction, similar social classes do currently and have existed in the world, they just go by different names, the Upper class, the Middle class and the Lower class. The Inner class is resemblant of the Upper class. They both make up 2% or less of the population, but carry most of the wealth and privileges. The Middle and Lower classes

My Fair Lady and Nickel and Dimed are both great novels focusing in on wealth and money. While these books are unique in their own different ways, they are basically the opposites of one another! My Fair Lady focuses on the young and witty Eliza Doolittle, who is brought up into a high class lady. While in Nickel and Dimed, Barbara is leaving her high class paying job and moving down into a low-class minimum wage paying job. It is very interesting to see how these two books are so similar but have

Gloria Jean Watkins, better known as, her pen name bell hooks, is an American writer who is best known for her focus on feminism and black women’s perception in America. Hooks lived through segregation in the south and as a result has become a successful writer and professor, speaking and writing about her childhood and views. She is from Hopkinsville, KY and adopted her pen name from her great-grandmother. I found interesting when reading about her that she chose to use lower case for her name,

Intro Sport has been defined through social boundaries an example is, for instance, a single sport can be played differently by rules, courts, or even the preconceived unwritten rules. Thus, the way that each social class plays the specific sport does not make their way right or wrong, but rather built out of social constraints with the environment in which they are surrounded. Each social class is taught through their own spectacles or habitus on ways they should play the sport. Looking in depth

Lisa later went on to discuss how her social class affected her social class inside of the classroom with both her teachers and her peers. Lisa considered herself to be talkative and diverse in her friends. She tended to pick on those that were the same but also was able to relate to the struggles that many of them had since they were of the same social class. Her friend group consisted of those of the same race and interests as her. She liked to refer to her as a “social butterfly” and was friends

Religion has existed for a significant portion of human history and continues to do so; however, even a single religion’s history, traditions, and popularity have not always been constant. On an individual level, religion can also play a huge role in a person’s life, although that may not always be a purely voluntary choice. Defense mechanisms may have to be utilized if a person wants to live as they please or else they will be forced to confront the jarring inconsistencies in their beliefs. Jerrold

After World War II the next threat was the Soviet Union and the growing amount of communism. The fear of communism breed the conformist 1950’s, which created suburbs, consumerism, “organization men”, domesticated women, car culture, and explicit gender rules (I&J, 43-58). Communism engulfed everyone so much that people were afraid to be different. The culture of the 1950’s was not only seen in their everyday lives but shown through advertisements. In the 1950’s, women were working and being transformed

Question 1: Section A: I am a Mexican-American woman, born to Mexican immigrant parents, and by birthright an American citizen. In my phenotype, I do not look like a stereotypical American, with blonde hair, blue eyes, or a light complexion. I have black hair, dark brown eyes, and a light brown skin complexion. While exploring my identity and my sense of belonging in my Mexican-American, or Chicana identity, I can relate to the growth and development described in the Model of Death and Dying. For

In America, we have a very distinct class system. You’re either poor, middle class, or wealthy. Of course America’s class system is flexible, so you can move up-or down easily. The only problem is most people don’t succeed in moving up, and if they do it’s a whole new world. Your social class makes it so you have a different perspective on immigration. This idea is shown when you compare “Quilt of a Country” and “The Immigrant Contribution”. Of course, there were some complementary views such
