Cultural Identity Wrap-up --- Qiaomin Wu (Jasmine)



        Before learning this lesson, I guessed this just talking about American culture. But in fact, this is not at all. In this class, I can think more about cultural identity and know more countries’ culture. For example, I am happy what I have known where is Saudi Arabia and what culture does it has by poster project. Even I think this is a great subject for me why is can improve my knowledge and let my brain become smart. In addition, by studying in this unit, I know America is a big country which exist diverse cultures, and each of immigrants needs to be well to measure their own culture and American mainstream culture. For example, when you in the store, someone is blocking your path. At this moment, you have to say “Excuse me” or “I am sorry !” with a polite tone. Moreover, you will find that everyone accustomed to use “thank you” “Sorry” on their lips in US. Maybe this is part of American culture. So in my opinion, I think those little things as a mirror that I can easy to look out some cultural differences in my life. At the end of, I really understand why the book is called Mirror on America.
