that I experience are that of being a Texan and a Democrat. Although you may think this is a challenge, my city is rather liberal and voted Democratic in the last presidential election. People who live in ethnically diverse communities have a higher diversity complexity (Schmid, 2012). I believe this higher diversity complexity is part of the reason Houston voted Democratic in the last election. These two identities interact in various ways.

The biggest strength for both of these teams is their ability to rush the passer. Both teams finished in the top five in total sacks. J.J. Watt of the Texans led the NFL with 17.5 sacks, and

would they want to fight just to go to another country? Well, Texans went to war because of states rights, their love of Texas, and to preserve slavery. To begin with, many texans went to war because they thought that the union was taking away their states rights. In Document C, it says “ This is a union of equal states, and no state can force another state either to remain in it or withdraw from it”( Doc C). This shows that texans were not happy with the union telling them they can’t leave them

Being an employee of the Houston Texans for not quite seven years ignited my passion for sports tourism with an emphasis in event planning.

society has shaped me to who I am today. Having been born in another country the major social problem or force that affected my life has been that I am an immigrant. I have lived most of my life in the states in Texas and I proudly consider myself a Texan. Since I came in to Texas so young I did not have any issues adjusting to the language and culture.
