What is culture?

What is race?  Identity with a group of people that share a common ancestor  Based on genetics  The outward genetics often effect geography – may sort out where people live, go to school, spend their time, etc. – Ex. Segregation

Ethnicity - What is it?  Affiliation with a group whose racial, culture, religious, or linguistic characteristics or national origins distinguish it from a larger population within which it is found

Ethnicity – are you born with it or is it socially constructed?  If you were born in Kazakhstan and were adopted by a couple in Poland – would your ethnicity be Kazak or Polish?

Ethnocentrism  A tendency to evaluate other cultures against the standards of one’s own.  Can divide multiethnic societies  Lead to genocide

Emergent Ethnicity  Newly constructed ethnicities  Example Palestinians  The revival of an ethnicity  Fades and reemerges  Ex - Welsh Resurgent Identity

Ethnic Identity can change:  Times of stress for a group or country  War  Current Events
