REFLECTION PAPER
Group 1
The wide variety of subcultures discussed proves just how diverse and
complex culture is. The presentation the use of language on the society.
From my experience listening to my classmates’ presentations, it is evident
that humans have a natural curiosity toward other cultures. Judgments and
prejudice have become second-nature for us due to years of socialization
and education that made us believe one culture can be better than
another. Modern manifestations of racism are often subtle which is why
people can be racially biased without their knowledge. Studying cultural
anthropology shifted made me aware of this and taught me to see other
peoples’ cultures in a non-judgmental manner that gives me leverage to
better understand and appreciate the cultures outside of my own.
