Globalization - Americanization

 Americanization is only a small part of globalization. America has formed its own culture in the areas of social aspects, economy, and politics. There are several contributors for this sense of American nationalism. People have immigrated here since the discovery of America and brought their distinct cultures with them. These cultures made a melting pot of different cultures that make America. The English language we use today itself has changed over time because of the mixture of cultures. As people come here they begin to enjoy the freedoms associated with our country and gradually start to act less like foreigners and more like Americans. However, we bring and continue to practice and live by our culture customs and beliefs. People tend to find other people from the country they came from and build towns of ethnic enclaves. And, just as the rest of the world witnesses American culture almost everywhere around the world by what we call cultural icons of our times. Like sneakers, blue jean and t-shirts, burgers, Starbucks and Coca Cola to nearly every country on earth. Foreigners also influence the change in American culture. There go changing American culture.

  1. I completely feel the same way about The bIrthmark story. When I finished reading it I didn't know what to think about it either.
