You will be analyzing your own culture (African American ) using specific elements of cultural analysis. If you are a mix of

cultures, you can choose the one that you most identify with, or you can use the one that you

would like to learn more about.

                                          unable to be in contact with your grandparents – approval must be granted by

• Investigating cross-cultural differences and similarities,
