Topic #1: ¿Cόmo Se Saluda la Gente?
How do people in the Spanish-speaking world greet each other?
After reading this section of the text, I found that most Spanish-speaking people greet each other with by asking how they are doing. Men usually shake hands and if they are close friends, they may greet each other with a hug or
abrazo.
Female friends usually greet each other with a little kiss on the cheek and a gentle hug. This type of greeting is called a
besito.
The text explains that depending on the country, the women will kiss on one or both cheeks. The text finalizes the interpretation of Spanish-speaking greeting by explaining that men and women greet each other based on how familiar they are with each other, what country they are in, and how well they know each other. This greeting usually consists of a hand shake and/or a
besito
.
How do your male friends generally greet each other? And your female friends?
My male friends usually greet each other with a hand shake and sometimes a one armed hug. This is considered manly. My female friends will greet each other with a hug.
How do greetings reflect a culture?
Greetings are a reflection of the culture in which one is derived. Handshakes, hugs, kisses, etc. are reflection of their culture. Some greetings are reserved for those in higher classes. ...

The Global Village
Thinking of the world close up, as if it were a village of one hundred people, forces us to confront what we mean we say “we”.
…How often does our we come to include people of other faiths, other nations, other races? How often does our we link rather than divide? Our relations with the “other” may move through a number of phases. First we talk about them—an objective “other.” Then perhaps we talk to them, or more personally, we talk to you. And finally, we all talk with one another about us, all of us. This is the critical stage to which our…dialogue must take us if we are to be up to the task of creating communication adequate for an interdependent world.
If the world was a village of 100 people,
In the village would be:
57 Asians
14 Africans
12 Europeans
6 North Americans
7 Latino Americans (Central and South Americans)
3 Australians/Oceanians
1 Caribbean Islander
There would be:
33 Christians
22 Muslims
15 Hindus
4 Chinese Folk Religionists
6 Buddhists
6 Other Religions
14 Atheists or Nonreligious
If the world were a global village of 100 people, one third of them would be rich or of moderate income, two thirds would be poor.
Of the 100 people, 5 of them would be U.S. Americans. These 5 would have over a third of the village’s entire income, and the other 95 would subsist on the other two thirds.
Of the 100 residents, 47 would be unable to read, and only one would have a college education.
About 35 would be suffering from hunger and malnutrition, at least half would be homeless or living in substandard housing.
How could the wealthy live in peace with their neighbors? Surely they would be driven to arm themselves against the other 95, perhaps even spend as U.S. Americans do, about twice as much per person on military defense as the total income of two thirds of the villagers.
The casual we for most of us does not include the 50 percent hungry, the 60 percent in shantytowns, and the 70 percent illiterate. Most of us construct our we without including them. Thinking of the world close up, as if it were a village of one hundred people, forces us to confront what “we” really means.

The Deaf Culture: Is it Really a Culture at All
Carol Padden has defined Culture as a set of learned behaviors of a group of people who have their own language, values, rules of behavior, and traditions. (1988)
Culture results from a group of people coming together to form a community around shared experience, common interests, shared norms of behavior, and shared survival techniques. Such groups as the deaf seek each other out for social interaction and emotional support.
The essential link to Deaf Culture among the American deaf community is American Sign Language. This community shares a common sense of pride in their Culture and language. There exists a rich heritage and pride in the ability t.
Karma: (What Goes Around, Comes Around), It is commonly understood as an entire cycle of Cause and Effect as described in the philosophies of a number of religions such as Hinduism, Jainism, and Buddhism,coincidence is in reality an illusion, Karma is actually a very complex concept since you can never tell which cause is responsible for which effect.
Gender roles socialization theory is believed to be based on Social learning theory, Gender socialization is the process by which people learn to behave in a certain way, as dictated by societal beliefs, values, attitudes and examples.The concept of boy code and masculine mystique , Influence of family,“normative male alexithymia”, display of aggression, Gender in advertisement, Women were more likely to be sexualized than men.
Discrimination is the unfair or prejudicial treatment of people and groups based on their race, gender, age or sexual orientation, Gender schema theory was introduced by psychologist Sandra Bem in 1981, Gender Categories, androgyny,“turn up the volume on sex differences.”, Bem really advocated gender aschematicity, not androgyny.

Humans have been using technology since the earlier times to make their lives easier but that technology has also lead to some side effects such as pollution, industrial wastes, radiations etc. However, technology can also be used to promote pro-environmental behaviors.
Persuasive technology is broadly defined as technology that is designed to change attitudes or behaviors of the users through convincement and social influence, but not through force or oppression. Persuasive technology aims to form a connection between technology and psychology in order to solve environmental issues.
We communicate to express ourselves. No matter how good or bad we are, how intelligent or average we are, we need to communicate to define ourselves and form our impression in front of others. If we are good at communicating it means we have delivered our ideas, our knowledge effectively but we should also be a good listener. Communication becomes ineffective if; we start talking instead of listening, we stop asking open-ended questions, we have harsh tone of voice, we become defensive easily, we try to impose our ideas on others, and we try to dominate the conversation and so on.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

Cross Cultural Communication: TEDx talks
In this TEDx talk, the speaker is basically half-English and half-
Italian. Currently, he is living in Norway, has travelled throughout the
world and has experienced many different cultures. He thinks that
people often believe what others want them to believe. He talks about
how it is like belonging to one culture and trying to adjust with other
cultures, the difficulties we face, the odd looks we get, how we are judged and misperceived.
In the beginning, he talks about people belonging to different cultures and the difference in their
English accent. People belonging to a specific ethnicity are expected to have a specific accent and
if they talk in a proper British or American accent (the most acceptable ones), others find it quite
surprising and make fun of them if they talk in their ethnic accent. Speaker tried different accents
as social experiment to see people’s reaction and he observed that people actually treat us
differently based on our communication accent. If we talk in a good British or American accent,
no matter where we are, people actually take us seriously. But at the same time if people talk in
Italian, Australian, Indian or Latino accent people find it funny and laugh at us.
In cross cultural settings especially our institutes or workplace, we are given weightage according
to our English speaking skills. People judge us the way they want to and make assumptions based
on our communication skills and physical traits.
In every culture, there is a concept of “Accepted and
familiar”. People from different nationalities might
describe the same thing with completely different
words based on their concept of accepted and
familiar. For example, in one culture the “Accepted
and familiar” even when it comes to making queue,
such a minor behavior, would be completely
different from another. In Britain, people actually give space and are patient but at the same time
in Norway people have the belief of first come first serve that is equality. Now this Norwegian
behavior might be considered inconsiderate and rude in Britain but at the same time in Norwegian
culture, it’s their own “Accepted and Familiar” behavior. In Norway, people believe in equality
which leads to more casual and less bothersome society no matter the place. But the same type of

behavior is considered irritating and uncomfortable in other cultures because people have a habit
of jumping to negative conclusions rather than positive ones.
When it comes to cross cultural communication, it becomes really difficult to navigate through all
these differences. If a minor action of queuing is so different is every cultures, how many other
major differences would there be? The only way to overcome these differences is through learning
and we can only learn if we are curious. Curiosity is the key to cross-
cultural interaction. Even when we are just sitting with someone from
different culture, we can have a small talk through curious simple
questioning and then pick some specific words from their answer, make
question from those words and so on. But that is only possible if the next
person is not so communication economic. Some cultures use less words to communicate while
others might use way too many words for conveying just a small information. In Nordic cultures,
people use a lot of words to say little. For example, British people would say “sorry, I didn’t catch
what you just said?” but a Norwegian would just need to say “hae?”. Now this Hae? Word might
be negatively perceived as rude and non-sophisticated by other cultures. Every culture has many
things which are misperceived by other nationalities. For example, Dutch people are misperceived
as Champions of complaining, but nobody tries to understand why people in specific cultures
behave in specific manner like Dutch people complain a lot because they are always looking for
something better.
Traffic rules are universal but every different culture has modified the rules their own way. In
some countries, people follow proper line spacing, in others we are not even sure where the road
even leads because of bad traffic. It is not about right or wrong anymore when it comes to cultures,
it is more about what is “Accepted ad Familiar” in their society. For example, in Norway, even a
few centimeter parking issue would lead to fine but at the same time in Italy, the parking guards
would themselves try to dissolve the issue through discussion and find the most profitable way out
for both parties.
The best we can do is take the best out of different cultures and combine those best parts to form
a new culture which would be “Accepted and familiar” throughout the world. Cross cultural
interaction is not about judging and making fun of others. It is more about expanding our

boundaries and acceptance level and to be less judgmental. Create your own new boundaries
through cross cultural communication.
