My final reflection !

Image
My Reflection My favorite topic or my favorite activity in the course was when we saw a film of our choice related to the topic of racism because it was an activity where I was free to choose what I wanted to see so I had fun doing that task and I learned more about that topic, I learned that friends or people around you or together can influence too much in your way of thinking and in the activities you do whether they are good or bad, we must analyze and see what we want for ourselves, if people that we surround ourselves are those indicated to be what we want to be or if they are not, let them go and we follow our path . Not only in Mexico do there exist cases of violence and racism, but all over the world, even if they are power, the people around the world who do these acts have been misinformed or badly educated on the subject, we must think more about us in our inner self and what we want to improve, not just letting ourselves be carried away by what people tell ...

Chapter 5 of Gloria Anzaldúas: "Borderlands/La Frontera: The New Mestiza".

Chapter 5 Anzaldúa talks about the power, the gender role and racism towards a lesbian girl with different thoughts in society, I think it is quite sad because it is the reality we live in today, many people have their way of thinking and their cultures some reason or event that happened in their lives and we should not discriminate because we are a woman or because we are lesbian, no gender is better than another, we all contribute what is necessary and we are important to live properly, we are all unique. A Single Lucid Moment,  A Different Sense of Space and How to Tame a Wild Tongue. I think that each reading and actor has a different point of view about culture, if they all talk about the different problems or situations that are experienced today, in racism because of the lack of culture and respect in our country, they talk about important things that happen and how to operate a culture properly, in which society is respected and do not damage each other. we ...

Yes man! Movie

1. What is the movie about? What topics does it deal with? Th e film of yes sir is about a man named Carl who became very bitter because his beloved left him and did not want to go out with friends or live together with others to everything he said no, until he was reunited with an old friend who told him that his life changed saying yes to everything and staying positive, Carl listened to his old friend and started to say yes to everything his life improved and he got a new girlfriend until she realized that he only said yes for compromise, she left him and then Carl understood that saying yes to everything was not as good as he thought, he fixed his mistakes and he came back with her and they lived happily. I think that this movie tell us a message very important because we don’t have to be another person that you’re not, you don’t need to be hateful with others just because you have problems, I think that we need to fix our problems, be happy with ourselves and live in the best...

Identity

·          Explore what cultural identity means to you. For me cultural identity it means that each person belongs to a circle or social group where different ways of thinking and acting are obtained according to the culture in that town and how they have been learned over the years through our parents. They educate us according to our religion and traditions, that is why each country has different cultures and traditions ·          Identify what elements contribute to your own cultural identity. The elements that contribute to my own cultural identity are my catolic religión, my traditions and my culture. I think that each things that we do every day is our culture, for example i usually eat tacos, play soccer, drink tequila, etc. Thats some examples that in other country is totally different. Thats why we learn it when we were kids. ·          Explor...

My Reflection Alejandro Anguiano Teacher: Ariadna Levi IC711745 Career: Civil engineer August 21 2018   The culture for me is everything in itself, what surrounds us, what happens to us day by day, with everything that we interact and our thoughts and beliefs that help us to carry out the activities that distinguish us from others. The typical things that we do everyday in our city. In my culture the food is awesome, Mexico has one of the best foods around the world, we usually eat tacos and food with tortillas, rice, beans, etc. those meals distinguish us from another countries. About the dress in my country I think that we usually get dressed not so covered like Saudi Arabia, we dress so typical with shoes, pants and shirt. I think that we are very happy about our culture and our country. Our buildings identified our culture so much. We have many buildings so different to other countries, we usually do buildings with cement, gravel and sand...
