"Practicing Awareness of Microaggressions"



There are many people who sexual preference differ from others.  An intimate relationship involves physical attraction between people both the same sex and the opposite sex.  Love is the attraction that connects two people.  Nearly all relationships encounters are prone to microaggressions; unfortunately, in this humanity, racism continues to pestilence the world about same-sex relationships.  Therefore, it would be significant to understand the historical and present societal definition of different forms of sexual orientation. 

It is disastrous, that in today’s culture people with a homosexual or bisexual orientation have been denounced whether intentional or unintentional behavior.  Nevertheless, lesbian, gay and bisexual people will deal with bias, discrimination and violence in today’s society and, in some cases, in their some families, schools and communities.  It is imperative to comprehend that people are sensitive to their cultural briefs and value diverse cultural.  No one is born racist but no one born into this society is immune to its distortions, interwoven into all aspects of life (Margles, S & Margles, R.M., 2010).

“Perspectives on Diversity and Culture”

Culture is the point that the concepts, senses, beliefs and values people learn as supporters of the society determines human nature.  They also refer to culture as increasing knowledge, experience, religion concepts on the universe, and a group of people of different generations.   Diversity is the understanding of individual being unique and is aware of their individual differences.  Diversity known as individuals or groups of demographic and philosophical differences created of humanity.


Cultural and diversity have different perspectives such as cognitive and language development; cognitive and language development in imperative, since children learn how to express their feelings, their cognitive will development fast.   There are many ways that cultural differences are taught to young children. Everything we do tells children about how we see the world and what we think of others (Levy, 1994).  As a result, of a child’s cognitive skills become well, they will better understand different cultural beliefs.   

The course discusses national, social, and cultural issues, regarding a critical perspective which will provide a better understanding of living.  Some aspects of culture and diversity are mislaid, such as people do being educated.   Some cultures may have concerns with race, ethnicity, age, and gender in a culturally diverse group without knowing about the different culture beliefs. Some people definitions of culture and diversity influences deals with various values, abilities, concerns and reservations.

My Family Culture

“A Major Catastrophe”



*A description of the three items you would choose:

Natural catastrophic events can be volcanoes, earthquakes, and hurricanes.

*How you would explain to others what each of these items means to you:

Major natural catastrophic events have a significant effect on living things that are on the planet.  All God's creatures grow individually in a potentially dangerous zone all over the world.  Several different sites have some contributions for the magnitude of volcanoes, earthquakes, and hurricanes. Catastrophic damage can develop so rapidly without any warning.

*Your feelings if, upon arrival, you were told that you could only keep one personal item and have to give up the other two items you brought with you:

I know that I would feel sad and angry, also, to emotionally challenge if two items would be the only personal things I can keep and had to give up everything.  I would first decide on the needed assessment and provide assistance along with guidance to everyone involved. 

*Any insights you gained about yourself, your family culture, diversity, and/or cultural differences in general, as a result of this exercise:

Everything done in life would help to provide the needs of our family culture.  Therefore, everyone will have to gain an understanding of the diversity of cultural groups.  Learn the knowledge of how to support a cultural group as well as being sensitive to their needs.
