In summary, on 09/21/15 at 0418 hours I was patrolling the area of 1600 S. Laramie Ave., at which time I observed a male subject with a youthful appearance walking northbound 16th Street. I made contact with the subject, at which time he identified himself as (Rosas, Alexis DOB 04/21/97). While speaking with Rosas, I detected a strong odor of fresh cannabis emanating from his person. Rosas related he had some cannabis in his sweater pocket. I recovered a silver box containing a green leafy substance from Rosas ' right sweater pocket.
and it’s people including myself differ in opinion. To describe my culture along with Grand Prairie of Texas and Kelly Hancock culture, I am going to start by describing my cultural background. I grew up in the city, nothing to fancy. I lived in a calm and decent neighborhood full of nice people.
Louisiana Comprehensive Master Plan for a Sustainable Coast The Louisiana coast is a natural, economic, and cultural tourism resource. It features an area rich in ecological abundance that supports activities such as commercial and recreational fishing, habitat for a number of waterfowl, migratory birds, reptiles and amphibians. In addition, it has five of the top 12 ports (per cargo volume) in the United States. It is a major supplier of US natural gas and oil power and home to more than 2 million people - nearly half of the state's population.
Now, the laid back southern life to me, is the way to go! No one is ever in a hurry it seems, just moseying along at their own tempo of life. Sitting back relaxing in the yard with family and friends talking about everything under the sky, laughing and cutting up with one another, having a cook-out or a late night bonfire enjoying the night air, sippin’ on some sweet tea, is what is special in my heart.
Being from Louisiana, I was raised to always have my own back. My family is very big, I have 3 sisters, 2 brothers. I live with my mom and step-dad and occasionally visit my biological dad and step- mom. My family are encouraging and sometimes can be helpful. They expect the best from me being that I am the oldest child.
I live in a minuscule town in Western North Carolina, where southern traditions are very important to the majority of the population. Such as drinking sweet tea, eating biscuits and gravy, and going to church. Here within one of those important traditions lies why I had to take such a significant risk. At the beginning of my eighth grade year of middle school, only a mere thirteen years of age, I knew I was different. However, what made me different would surely turn many against me.
The talented musician Eddie Money once said “I’ve got two tickets in my pocket, now baby, we’re going to disappear.” What if we all had that? Two tickets to wherever you wanted to go. No one to stop you just you and someone special to you disappearing.
I wake up the screeching of my alarm clock, prompting me to get out of bed even before the sun begins its day. Outside, the street is silent, but I cannot see far because of the morning fog. I was excited for the day, looking forward to the results of yesterday’s work. In the city of Houston, Texas, vastly different cultures collide.
The city is known for its culture, creativity, great food, and our different music. New Orleans has always been home for me until, the unthinkable happened. No, our city isn’t always filled with tons of fun. We have suffered a dramatic change over a decade ago. Although it was so long ago, our city still isn’t the same as it was before.
At the risk of oversharing, but what the hey… This week, I started wrapping up Dad’s estate in Louisiana and what I thought was going to be a nightmare has instead, filled me with gratitude. I have reconnected with old friends and have stumbled upon some of Dad’s old friends in the process. No one has been in a hurry to get off the phone and the more you chat, the more family connections you uncover (not hard to do in that area). Today, I spoke with a gentleman who knew Dad and shared that Daddy’s generosity helped him get his start in business 40 years ago. He is now reciprocating the favor through me.
Cultural identity. The identity or feeling of belonging to a group, it is part of a person’s self-conception and self perception and is related with nationality, ethnicity, religion, social class, generation, locality or any kind of social group that has its own distinct culture. Cultural identity also relates to ethnic identity, which entails an awareness of one’s membership in a social group that has a common culture. Many people have a different outlook on cultures and the effect it has on people, some people are influenced by it a lot more than others are. With some people they have something or do something on a daily basis that represents who they are and where they're from.
In my eyes, American culture is like a salad bowl. People from all different places, with all different backgrounds, came together to make America unique and diverse. Some aspects that make up American culture include our food, our art, our ways of life, and our national holidays. For example, holidays such as the 4th of July, Memorial Day, Thanksgiving and Veterans Day are only celebrated in this country. All cultures have the same basic needs of food, water, shelter and good health, but all cultures tend to have different values.
Life as a Native American sucks. I realized this when I was a little kid. I’ve come to accept that what other people label or describes us as are true. I’m not happy to admit this they are right. My people don’t do anything to prove these people’s claims, or better known as stereotypes, about Native Americans wrong.
Gage Domingue Ms. David English 2 10/1/15 Cultural Identity Being an African American born in Louisiana who loves spicy food and even spicier women, i 'm greatly influenced by my culture. My cultural identity comes from the food I eat, the race I am, and the state that I live in. If not for these three things, I wouldn 't be myself. First of all, the food as I said before is spicy.
My culture of origin is Mexican culture. Both of my parents were born and raised in some part of Mexico. I grew up around my whole family, including aunts, uncles, cousins, and grandparents who were all born in Mexico. My family is big and they always like being with each other. We like to get everyone involved in things and we always strive to be successful.
