Question 2:
Movie Clip
You just viewed a scene from the film Witness starring Harrison Ford. Fords character is a Philadelphia police detective who is assigned to solve a murder where the only witness is an Amish boy who is traveling with his mother. Neither of them has left their small farm before. Ford discovers that the boy and his mother are not safe and he brings them back to their farm. Ford is wounded in a shoot out and by the time he reaches the farm he passes out from his injury. The Amish woman and her father nurse Ford back to health.
In this particular scene, the boys grandfather is explaining to the boy the way the Amish view guns.
The view that the Amish have towards guns and killing is related to which one(s) of the conclusions discussed by Stodtbeck and Kluckhohn in relation to Functions of Cultural Patterns?
Summarize Stodtbeck and Kluckhohn theory.
Question3:
United States
There is no box on any known government form for a racial or ethnic group called Cablinasian.
And, yet, there is at least one American who would check that box. His name is Tiger Woods.
Woods once said in an interview that he invented the word as a child to describe his racial makeup; Caucasian, black, Indian, and Asian.
In addressing his ancestry, Woods has broadened the discussion of race in America, putting into high relief the infinite shades of gray that bridge the largely artificial divide between black and white.
It is a bold move. Many governmental functions the census, affirmative action and poverty programs, and the drawing of congressional districts are based on counts of the four officially recognized racial groups: American Indian or Alaskan Native, Asian or Pacific Islander, black, and white. Those who are Spanish/Hispanic may check a box for their country of origin&.Perhaps more important, deeper issues of cultural identity and the nations history of racial injustice have been based on long-established racial distinctions.
But its the way in which Woods fails to conform to those long-established ideas about race that makes him so interesting.
Why is it so important to select terms that adequately and sensitively identify members of cultural groups?
