1. Ben Franklin, pointing to the sun carved on the back of the presiding officer's chair, remarked; "Throughout the days we have been laboring here, I have observed that sun, and wondered whether it was a rising sun or a setting sun. Now I know it was a rising sun."1 Throughout our lives we have been told of how our country was formed. I am here to tell you about the things the history books and teachers don’t tell you about the freemasons and there shaping of the United States of America. We will start with freemasons an agency that has been shaping history since the building of King Solomon’s temple.

Arriving at a foreign country at the age of eleven years old was and exiting and yet intimidating experience. High buildings, wide roads, newer and nicer cars on the streets were some of the first things I noticed when I arrived to the city of Los Angeles CA. Living in a country where you were not born in could be difficult some times. Although Spanish is spoken at a grand scale in CA, it was difficult to communicate with and understand the teachers from my classes at the elementary level since all they spoke was English.

“I believe the world and all that’s in it is one big family, and we need to help each other.” This quote says that no matter who you are, you have a family that can help you and that you need to help others. Chapter 29 of Inkheart by Cornelia Funke supports this theory, because while Meggie and Mo were talking they thought about Dustfinger. They were wondering if he was ok. This shows that they really do care about Dustfinger after he betrayed them. This shows us that everyone makes mistakes, and everyone is forgiven and someone to help them in hard times.

This is not the first time that Canada fights against America in order to protect Canadian culture. Canada 's protective measures were mainly to protect the national or domestic culture in that the local magazine outlets were being overshadowed by their International rival which is America.(Globalization 101). Should Canada not have taken these measures probably 100% of its local markets would have been monopolized by America. International product and service providers like America have the advantage of having all the production material from the primary phase to the tertiary phase and they can easily overtake any market they decide to outlet their services. Justice is served when the local governments step in to defend the periodicals. It

Roger Brooke states that the behavior and experiences of human beings is always contextual and these behaviors are rooted in language, time and cultural history. The relationship between a person and the world includes meaning, interpretations, intentions and significance. Events in our lives not only simply constitutes the change of a label or an identity, but the new identity can constitute a new world of meaning. It can change the understanding of our past. For example, when I became a mother for the first time, my world of meaning, experience and identity was as a wife and a person that worked in a large corporate firm. Becoming a mother not only involved a name change for me, but a change in my world view, in my daily activities, in the way I viewed other

After reading Chapter 2: “Culture and Social Structure”, I have a better understanding of cultural differences and the conflict between a dominant cultural group and non- dominant group within a common space in a society. Chapter two, identifies that culture is a learned behavior, which is passed down through symbolic language by our elders into the new generation. It also brings forward that culture is made up of all the things that commonly share with a group. In addition, the author’s notion that a group of people will resist to any cultural change since they view those outside as potential threats that will influence and change their cultural originality; or the dominant cultural group can be welcoming, allowing cultural integration to take place peacefully.
