How would you express the importance of traditional holidays to someone who’s unfamiliar with your culture?
@9KNM77CProgressive10mos10MO
Traditional holidays should be kept but not forced upon people, respect the changes of the future.
@9KNM2Y3Women’s Equality10mos10MO
I think its important to have cultural holidays because you can avoid a lot of conflict and lack of understanding with peoples cultures who are different from yours. its always good to educate yourself about other people and try to get a mutual understanding
@9KNLY6GRepublican10mos10MO
Culture is the soul of a vibrant society, expressed in the many ways we tell our stories, celebrate, remember the past, entertain ourselves and imagine the future. Our creative expression helps define who we are and helps us see the world through the eyes of others.
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y
How would you balance respecting cultural traditions with the need to adapt to changing societal values?
@9H4VNMX1yr1Y
I believe a culture should be kept, but not forced onto others.
@9H4VHJCProgressive 1yr1Y
I believe that cultural traditions should still be preserved and celebrated however judgment should be used when it comes to what would be deemed appropriate in today's society.
@9H4VSP61yr1Y
Making diversity open, and PSA's about learning each other without replicating.

How does the language or dialect you speak at home connect you to your cultural identity?
@9J27TP612mos12MO
its a different way i speak at home then out in public around others
@9J278KP 12mos12MO
I speak one language; English. I haven't thought about what it means to me because everyone I know speaks it. I know language is power, and I wish I was good at learning languages because I want to talk to people and understand their life and experiences just how I could do it. In terms of cultural conservatism, I would say that the whole ideology doesn't have a stable argument, seeing as American Culture is a combination of Irish, German, English, Dutch, Italian, Polish, Scandinavian, Western African, Central American, and etc. cultures. Allowing people to speak their languages and share their culture with the always changing American culture is how this country has been, and trying to stop them has been equally tried and equally failed.
@ISIDEWITH10mos10MO
Can you describe a moment when a traditional cultural practice helped you connect with others?
Yes, at my job when we would celebrate birthdays we would have food of different countries and realize how important to keep our culture. To keep in mind where we came from and show our next generation.
@9KZLBXJ10mos10MO

@9JHNR8LPeace and Freedom 11mos11MO
I believe schools should implements articles, even those that are translated, from other countries. It is important for us to be submerged in other cultures via their literature, values, customs, and traditions. I believe dedicated holidays and festivals are also an amazing way for people of the culture to feel at home, while unfamiliar people can become intertwined as well.
@ISIDEWITH1yr1Y

What are the potential risks of abandoning long-established cultural practices for modern ones?
@9H95DSP1yr1Y
