Cultural Perspective, how you see and view the world, and how it affects you in return. Culture affects you in ways you couldn’t or couldn’t even imagine.

Culture is an important and vital component that defines who and what we are as a person. We interface with cultural difference on a daily basis. So what exactly is culture? Good Question! I will attempt to identify my own cultural and explain what cultural means to me. So, lets start by defining the term culture. “Culture is a particular society that has its own beliefs, ways of life, art, etc.”. (Merriam-Webster Dictionary, 2015) My cultural identity consists of several parts. I am most foremost a female that has a variety of racial genetic makeup of African-American, Native American, and European descent. I was raised in a Christian religious household and in a primarily single parent home. I have a sister and a half brother on my father’s…
Cultural identity is a huge part of who we are. Not only does it define our interests, it also dictates why and who we interact with. It affects so many things in our life that it can be hard to find anything at all that isn’t affected by it. For me personally, the biggest parts of my cultural identity are the food I eat, the people I spend my time with, and the music I listen to.…

Until today, I never put much thought into my culture identity, I had always thought that I was Mexican and that was it, there is nothing more to it. My parents who are fully Mexican have always taught me that my culture is very important. They always told me that, my culture is one of the things that make me stand out from the rest. I never saw it as something important, because I thought culture was just your race and nothing more. I only ever thought that I was a girl who came from a Mexican background and was born and raised in America. Now I see that my cultural identity makes me who I am, a Mexican-American woman. My culture is very big on food, it is one part that makes it known to others, music and religion are also very important in my culture, they tell a story, more importantly they tell my story.…
Good job on your post ! You made a good point on your post because I will also have to agree that it's hard for me to put myself into a specific category. The reason why us because I have a lot qualities that explains my identity as a person. I put myself in the "Integrate awareness" because that was the only category that describes part of my culture identity. I think it's good that you was honest about it being hard for you to put yourself in a certain category because I know for some people it's hard and it's important we know our standards of…
1. My culture has been such a great influence in my life. The biggest showing of this was when I got to Presentation College last year. Missing all the different foods and just the family exercise and rituals that I went through, and not even noticing them till I was away from home. It went unnoticed for 18 years, and it was first noticed when no one around me could understand a lick of Spanish. That’s when I knew and understood my culture played a huge role in my life. From the foods, to the language spoken on a daily basis. I knew where I came from but just never knew how much I valued it.…
