Cultural activity simply means that feeling of belonging to a
certain group. It involves the personal perception or conception
and is related to language, religion, ethnicity, nationality,
generation, Age set among others. It important to describe my
culture identity as a basic sociological term passed from
generations and which includes the beliefs and value system of
the society. These features bid us together into a community and
creates a feeling of uniqueness. My cultural identity as changed
to some extent due to technology and urbanization. My view is
that various cultural activities have been outdated by the current
generation; i.e. the roles of men and women in the society.

2. Great introduction.
By virtue of wisdom, I prefer cultural identities that promote
peace, unity and co relation between society members. Religion
is a cultural practice that promotes peace and spiritual growth
among the citizen thus must be factored as a key element in life.
The church services and the religious rituals are meant to
promote unity and integration among citizens. Nationality is an
identity of one’s place of birth and origin, if well-defined it
promotes patriotism among citizens contrary to which it used to
invite discrimination. Ethnicity in other words promotes
peaceful co-existence among the community. It also helps in
defining the ancestral spirit and location of the people. Age set
is a basic culture that defines one’s life and the stages in life.
There are cultural definitions of roles of individuals outlined in
the age set; role of men, children, women, girls, boys and aged.
Generation is a cultural identity that requires careful definition.
The modern generation is found to devalue the traditional
African heritage. Respect to the elders for example have been
eroded as the young belief in uniform equality. The generation
is said to have diverted from the religious way of life to
westernization. Several abortion, fornication and adultery have
been reported in recent years. The incorporation of western
culture in the recent generation as eroded the taboos and moral
values in society leading to more consequences. Racism is
another cultural activity that leads to color discrimination
among nations thus must be highly avoided.
The upcoming of new technology and having access to have i.e.
internet has increasingly changed the culture of many
communities. The access to internet by the young and old
generation have marked a rapid change in mode of dressing,
traditional beliefs, religion and many others. The youths can
now access the dressing styles and fashions worldwide ending
up being assimilated in foreign cultures. Some have gone to an
extent of abandoning their religious virtues to incorporate
others i.e. the Chinese booths religion and Hinduism.
My culture identity has changed greatly from my child age to

3. adult. When young I used to follow the foots of my parents in
terms of dressing and religion. During adult age, it’s now my
time to change and make decision to whatever appears viable to
me. I just decide on which code to dress and to which religion I
must belong to. During child age many taboos were said,
community customs and rituals which for now I find less
important. It’s worth to say some cultural identities such as rite
of passage transforms the life of individual from childhood to
adulthood. Its during initiation time that I understood the role
and responsibility of a man to the family and society. Equally
children are greatly affected by cultural activities since they
have no choice in making their own decision. All the ways of a
child correspond to the teachings of his or her guardian. I find
many adults shifting from one religion to another condemning
their parents for misguidance. Moreover, I still a bid to moral
rituals and Christianity as the derives me in a dignified life.
And it is this process of change that is important as you have
described.
Finally, cultural identity is found to be dynamic and ongoing
moreover during adolescence. At this age, the young discover
their senses and are prone to interact with different people. The
interactions shape their focus and end up losing there in born
believes and practices. Some defect from their churches,
mosques and also dressing styles. During adolescencet, all
children wishes to look similar. This welcomes the theme of
cultural diversity. ? I am confused as I think you may be saying
that it is the desire to be the same that does not promote
diversity? And yet your words say this is “welcome?”
In regard to the above discussion, it’s worth saying live is
individual and one must use is own wisdom and knowledge to
evaluate the cultural activities and identities that shape their
life better. Defecting from one’s culture is believed to invite
causes and thus must be avoided.
Overall I can tell you have some great thoughts here regarding
diversity. However, at times I am confused by your sentences. I

4. think that a final proof read perhaps by someone else might be
helpful to ensure your writing matches what you are trying to
express. Remember also to connect your assignments to the
assigned reading. I did not see any in text citations or a
reference list. Doing this is the foundation of academic writing.
You may want to set up an appointment with the Walden
Writing Center to review your paper and provide some tips.
They are great and very responsive. Also please copy and paste
