Like if someone looks like a slob but treats people nicely, does he deserve to be mistreated by his looks? I think that would be wrong. & most people say you're supposed to treat people how you want them to treat you.

If you must negotiate transition from one culture to another, can you still respect traditional values? Many have memories of being teased as kids, if they had an unusual name, a person with an "unamerican" name, is bound to have some additional struggles.
Is it possible for somebody from another country, to take on a (american) new identity, in order to fit in with a "different" society?
What are the differences in how we react to foreign names, from regular "common" ones?, would a name change cause dramatically altered treatment? Generally speaking, how do people respond when confronted with a name that is not familiar?, are cultural assumptions made- based on your name, language, speaking & pronounciation?.
What would be the result on the foreigners original sense of self?, would they still be able to preserve it after this name change?

I know it sounds like gibberish, but it's part of an assignment for a class, so serious responses (or not so serious) would be appreciated.
Thanks.

Why do you SOME of you say negative things when a black women is out with a non-black man? I know it’s not all of US, but so many do. I just switched jobs because the company I was at, I had so many black women harassing me (me another black woman) because of whom I’m dating (a white man). I had to file sexual harassment charges on my own sista’s at work (one was fired and the other’s reprimanded) because one brought her male cousins up to the office to harass me, then threatened physical violence. What is this, I don’t get it. Please explain I know not all black women do this but when my man picks me up from work or even at school I get it (This is college a place of higher learning) and I’m getting harassed by people who are suppose to be learned. Someone please explain why as black women some of us abuse another sister for her choice of partner.

I know that NOT ALL black women do this I am questioning the ones that do and the one who my know why the ones that do, do!

How do we go on, as a whole of people, they expect us to just pick up. We were in slavery for over 400 hundred years, more years then we have been free. Then after that drugs and guns where put into our neighborhood. So now the children don’t come out right they come out already addicted to crack because there parents were, they come out brain damaged……..they expect something so special of us when we live around this………when no one actually teaches us, they just see us as paychecks….there are so many questions, who planned this, why, who planned this whole thing to screw us over….....if we are to pray to god why didn’t he stop this, why didn’t he help us?????


If the government cares so much why didn’t they stop the drug flow???????
Why don’t they raise the price to ammunition, unless they truly wanted us to kill our self’s and each other………if one bullet was the prince of $5, 000 dollars would some one waste all there time jus to get that money and by the time that they get it the

Primarily the prevalence of children born out of wedlock, the glorification of negative rap music, the number of women who are left to raise their children without support from their father, and an adoration for the thug mentality.

Would a man be considered a traitor to his gender if he said that 60% of men cheat on their wives? Would he get called names? Would a Mexican be called a race-traitor if he spoke on the large number of Mexicans who are here illegally?

Just wondering why people are so defensive? If you could respond without using expletives and/or rudeness, it would be nice. Thanks.

It seems that people don't want to be bothered with questioning their government or standing up for their rights. There are so many answers to questions on Y/A that display and outright disinterest if not hate for anyone that questions the powers that be, and their actions. Have Americans really become a mindless fearfull heard of cattle for the rich and powerful? I always wondered while studying about Nazi Germany in school. How could the people of Germany have allowed Hitler to do what he did? Now I know.

Why are we not taught to prepare ourselves mentally for death? Maybe if we did we would be less scared to die.

I have neighbors who have these campers and they are a little
higher than our 6' wood fence. One day I was standing by
my big tree looking to see if the raccoon was coming over
the fence. I see the neighbor looking back at me as he was
on top of his camper. I have no desire to see what he is
doing. I would call the Police if I heard a burglar alarm in
the area though. Otherwise, I think it's best to keep to
myself in my neighborhood, especially with the robberies
going on. Are you chummy with your neighbors?
