Cultural relativism is the principle that an individual human's beliefs and activities should be interpreted in terms of his or her own culture. Moreover, this is an issue that we still face now in days due to the differences among societies. Achebe, who wrote Things Fall Apart proves to us that relativism affects everyone, leading to confrontation and disgrace among societies. Throughout the novel of Things Fall Apart we learn on how cultural relativism affects early Africans societies. Achebe proves to us that relativism affects everyone, and it only leads to disagreement and disgrace. These is reflected when the Africans look down on the outcast, and the whites look down on the Africans.

I tried searching, but I didn't have any luck. Does anyone know a website that gives me the definitions of the elements of dance? I need "shape" specifically. Thanks.

I have a student who MUST present her portrayal of Billie Holiday at a National Tournament.

How should my student prepare to display the mannerisms of a Heroin Addict?

What movies are out there that show Heroin Addicts and how they behave when high??

His favorite has been 'Where The Red Fern Grows'. He liked 'Little Britches', but he found 'Treasure Island's' language difficult to follow.
Is there a LIST of "Read Aloud books" that breaks down what kids like at what age?

OK, so my friend and I are writing a book, and we think it's really good, maybe even enough to publish when we're done and have finished editing. A lot of other people think so, too. Well, we've posted it on a website to get constructive criticism and such from people and it's turned out to be really helpgul and we've gotten a lot of great feedback. But I realized that couldn't someone copy and paste it? I though maybe we could copyright it, but we're both underage and I think it costs money. Does it? I really think we could go somewhere with this, and I don't want it to get stolen. Am I just being paranoid?

I thought Teddy Roosevelt was a really cool guy. Then I learned more about him and realized he wasn't that good of a person. Anyone else out there had an experience like this? Ex- Thomas Jefferson was a great inventor, thinker, writer, then you learned he inpregnated one of his slaves.
