What is American Culture?
1. What do you think is shared amongst the majority of Americans in terms of culture (meaning those ideas, beliefs, values, and behaviors that are both shared and learned amongst a group of persons…)?
2. Please provide a video clip or other interesting link to support your idea/s. You can also talk about subculture. (This is a category that implies that while everyone may feel part of American culture, they are also part of various subcultures – part of a group that is recognizable from the outside because it shares such things as ideas/beliefs/behaviors. Subcultures can be religions, ethnicities, or smaller things like skateboarding or street racing, but they must be recognizable to the outside because they share things. Skateboarding is a subculture that often is youth, can be any gender or ethnicity, has stereotypical behaviors such a breaking laws or smoking pot, has lingo and clothing that is exclusive to its participants, etc.)
