do you think America is losing its culture? at least 3 reason why you think so.?

Question

at least 3 reason why you think so.

Answer 1

I think America is losing its culture. This is mainly due to the obsession with being politically correct. The attitude that "not every does this so we have to eliminate it" is robbing groups of their culture. This happens to everyone. Minorities try to be like everyone else and whites don't even belong to an etnic group with an identity and rights. Everyone should be proud of their heritage and learn about it....whites, hispanics, asians, everyone!!We need to find strength in our unity but also encourage diversity.

Answer 2

I don't think we are losing it ,we are as always adopting to it .Since we are a very young country by the worlds clocks,we are still making our culture.We have some great traditions,Thanksgiving Day is a great family celebration,and you cant beat the way we celebrate the Fourth of July,Labor Day,Christmas. We love a baseball game with hot dogs and a cold beer,the snow filled football games,when you cheer any thing to keep from freezing.Picnics and family reunions. We still have our culture,although the foreign detractors will say that we Americans have none.Ignore the nay sayers from other country's,,they only hope to damage this great nation.
We Americans can and do say whatever we wish that's what makes this a free country for all legal Americans.

Answer 3

America defines its culture differently than other countries. Culture, for example in the arts, is very important to the maintenance of a civilization. Anthropologists and ancient historians observe that civilizations collapse when they dry up creatively: their art becomes repetitive, their buildings begin to look all the same. Large structures are also associated with major civilizations - from Egypt to Greece to Rome - and the abandonment of these grand structures signalled the beginning of the end of the civilization also. I really wish there had been some thought given to perhaps rebuilding the World Trade Center (prepared in various ways to defend against terrorists, of course). Five years and still a hole in the ground. Where might the United States be with great executive leadership?

Answer 4

Not losing, just absorbing more of a world view. The Internet, for good or bad, has drawn old and young into more of a mass culture than has ever been seen in recorded hsitory. One can sit at a computer and communicate with other persons in a remote part of the world, listen to their hopes and dreams, learn about their country.

Answer 5

No, although I would like to hear your definition of "our culture" before answering this question.

1) The American culture is unique because it is based on the freedom of the individual. Even though many people immigrate here and bring their own cultures, once they have children, their children adopt our uniquely "American" mindset, and within a couple of generations, they are indistinguishable from people who've been here decades.

2) Because America is made almost entirely of immigrants, we have many SUBcultures, but people who come here from other countries are generally eager to learn our ways, because frankly, America offers them more opportunity than any other country.

3) Americans have always been innovators and leaders. Our culture EVOLVES as we lead the way for the rest of the world. For that matter, virtually all cultures on earth evolve (albeit sometimes very slowly), and generally they follow our lead.

Answer 6

I think NOT. Hollywood, New York and Nashville are very much alive, thank you. As are evangelical and other religious cultures. And independent subcultures do not threaten any of them.

Leave the big cities. Visit America the way John Steinbeck did in 1960 http://www.nnbtv.dircon.co.uk/Books/2003/Travels.html

Answer 7

It's impossible to lose culture. There is always a culture. If you mean traditinal stuff by that, then yes, of course. Culture is changing continuously with every person, every event.

Answer 8

I think not.

American Culture has always been a mixture of all the assimilated cultures of those who settled here, so nothing is lost or gained, it is in a constant process of change.

Answer 9

Unfortunately,America is not only loosing its culture but it's declining too,
If you pay attention what's on TV you'll see what I mean,the people ready to do anything
in order to make money & the TV networks are willing to make anything to get high rating and what was not allowed in the past ,it's very normal to hear and see today,it's very sad to see it happening.

Answer 10

the entire written history of man has references of some delusional doe-doe thinking the world is going to hell, but it has not yet, and probably won't till Jesus comes back and begins judgement.. So where will you be standing on that day??
