Reflection...

As on all sides we visited, whether another city, town, state or country, we are facing a different lifestyle, different cultures, different traditions. Totally other world, very different from ours. This can be observed around the world, such as when visiting other countries, people who live there can realize very quickly that we are not like them, we do not belong there. We are not like them, and can we distinguish either by the way they talk, or among other things. Are used or are we raised in the form that if we see someone who is not like us so we should see totally different from us, which should not be in our place. Different social issues why we start to discriminate against people who are not of our roots, or our island. Such as the way we talk, as we said above, the way they walk. Dress, eat or think. Accordingly people rely to discriminate against others. Thing that should change around us. As is mentioned in the reading of " A Small Place" and " Identity”. Where we let you know that in most countries people have almost the same way of thinking about the social aspects. In these readings we see living examples of what is happening around the world is really serious. not because we are tourists we got to a new place we really different treatment to others if they belong there. Let us always take the prejudices that society has the same as if it were part of our culture. Either anywhere in the world the same society to tax this kind of prejudice as part of our lifestyle as a kind of meaning that relates humans in these days. Other prejudices that have been the most impact on society, even those who have committed the worst crimes in history, is religion. Religion for many is meaning or excuse for carrying out crimes, violence or disrespect, and that has been imposed as a law that supposedly gives us the right to look askance at others who do not share the same ideals. Among other prejudices this race so it is the highest percent of discrimination around the world and that many people synth resentment towards others. Although these features are those that identify us and makes us different from one another, for many people serves as an excuse for violence and crime. And we have seen many cases where the ugliest and most horrible crimes that have been committed in history are in the majority because of these same prejudices that we have instilled in others. in my opinion, although these readings that focus only on a specific place , we can reflect on it , and it serves as yet another example that in different parts of the world, whether it's a strange place , or little known , also has come the way of prejudicial and discriminate against others.

  1. I totally agree with you, even though prejudice is bad, unfortunately exist in every society and lead to discriminate those who we believe are different from us.

  2. I totally agree with both of you. I also agree with Sahara in the aspect that prejudice is one of the causes for commit crimes. The religion aspect is very important and interesting because it is supposed that the religion unify people but sometimes it just divide them, because you are from this religion or that other one.
