Christian Boujaoude September 18, 2014 Pd. 9 Kroposky Walking Dead Questions 1. Being an individual means being fully alive and mentally stable, making rational decisions. It means have every lobe in your brain at fully capacity. It means caring for other people and not just surviving. 2. In the Walking Dead, individualism is pervasive in the American culture because there are many instances where characters make decisions based on their individual needs rather than compromising and working with the group.

Chapter 8 Race and Ethnicity as Lived Experience Chapter Study Outline Defining Race and Ethnicity Race is a socially defined category, based on real or perceived biological differences between groups of people. Ethnicity is a socially defined category based on common language, religion, nationality, history, or another cultural factor. Sociologists see race and ethnicity as social constructions because they are not rooted in biological differences, they change over time, and they never have firm boundaries. Symbolic ethnicity is an ethnic identity that is only relevant on specific occasions and does not significantly impact everyday life. Situational ethnicity is an ethnic identity that can be either displayed or concealed depending on its usefulness in a given situation.
