Ashford University Cultural Views Comparison

 

This post serves multiple purposes: 1) To connect our previous Cultural Geography and Political Geography units;  2) To get you to think critically about political elections and events; and, more importantly, 3) To ask you to reflect back on one of the initial concepts discussed in this course — how your experiences are influenced by location.

PROMPT: Compare your current political/social/cultural views with the views of the general population who live in your hometown (or the general area where you grew up or spent a majority of your time). Are your current views the same or are they different from the general population of your home area? How and why do you think your views are different or the same?

***When responding, you do not have to tell us what your political views or affiliations are — I simply want you to discuss how and why your views are or are not the same as where you grew up. (Think about how our experiences are affected by location…)
