The author believes that language likes an invisible wall that prevents her mother from getting respect from the others. “The fact that people in department stores, at banks, and at restaurants did not take her seriously, did not give her good service, pretended not to understand her, or even acted as if they did not hear her”(765). This is how the others treat the author’s mother as well as non-native English speakers. Therefore, Amy Tan understands that there are a lot of immigrants who have been like her mother: being disregarded due to limited use of English. In addition, Amy Tan’s main point of the article is letting the audience know that the way of speaking language cannot reflect someone’s competency. The second point the author tries to say that language is not just language itself; it is about culture, background, and…

Cultural appropriation is often described as when somebody takes something of significance from a culture that is not their own without showing respect for what they have taken. While some people do this on purpose for personal gain, that being profit or just popularity, many may not even know what cultural appropriation is. Miley Cyrus has shown evidence that she either does not know about or does not care about cultural appropriation at her 2013 Video Music Awards performance on live television where she used black women’s bodies as sexual props, performed a song that she explicitly wanted to feel black, and degraded a vast population of black women in the process.…

Different types of identity shifts are observed related to the cultural encounter faced by individuals on repatriation like subtractive, additive, affirmative and also intercultural. Subtractive cultural identity is faced by individuals that tend to feel discomfort with the culture of their home country.

Cultural bias occurs if psychological research when the psychologist uses participants from only one culture and then generalises it to others, without validation. There are two main types of cultures which psychologist have studied, these are individualist and collectivist. Individualistic culture emphasises the importance of an individual whereas collectivist cultures (who are more specifically eastern societies) emphasise the importance of the group. However this can be criticized as being to over simplistic and ignoring individual and cultural differences. Ethnocentrism is the use of our own ethnic/cultural group as the basis for judgement about other groups. Eurocentrism is when Psychologists place emphasis on European theories/ideas at the expense of those of other cultures. They assume that Western concepts are superior to those of others, so as a result Western research is applied to other cultures, and is seen as a universal view of human behaviour.…
1. Ben Franklin, pointing to the sun carved on the back of the presiding officer's chair, remarked; "Throughout the days we have been laboring here, I have observed that sun, and wondered whether it was a rising sun or a setting sun. Now I know it was a rising sun."1 Throughout our lives we have been told of how our country was formed. I am here to tell you about the things the history books and teachers don’t tell you about the freemasons and there shaping of the United States of America. We will start with freemasons an agency that has been shaping history since the building of King Solomon’s temple.…
Uniquely, this receptive school bid is to affirm our need to react to the 21st-century global, collaborative environment that surrounds us. Moreover, at the core of today’s society, there is an increasing level of nonroutine, analytic, and interactive communication skill occupations that our students must qualify to do as they begin their entrance into the workforce (Preparing, n.d.). Where critical thinking and problem solving, collaboration, communication, creativity and innovations have been around for many decades, we must proceed to engulf these skills even more elaborate and bring them into the 21st-century era (Preparing, n.d.).…
Yet, many people use language to evaluate people. They think that people who can’t speak perfect English will people who can’t think perfectly. Her mother is treated disrespectful by a stockbroker, who doesn’t really pay attention on what she needs. Whereas, with Tan saying perfect English, the stockbroker does the work quickly. The hospital that gives her mother a CAT scan doesn’t apologize for the lose of the result until Tan talks with the doctor.…
Do people still care about their culture and involve themselves into it like as much as they used to? Or do they leave it aside like a rejected toy and forget about it? Today, the cultures and traditions of our people still play a big role in our society. Cultures and traditions are still important because they hold many history, defines our individuality, and it’s something for you and others to discover and enjoy.…
