Mixture of Cultures


Mixtue of Cultures

Coming from Mcallen, Texas, i thought i knew all there was to know about culture variety considering Mcallens geographical location of being only a stones thow away from Mexico. I had only seen the tip of the iceburg about cultural diversity. When i came to trinity University, i was surprised to see so many different colors, ethnicities, and types of people from all over as opposed to out 90% hispanic population and a few white/caucasion faes here and there as it is back home where i felt as if though i was the minority.

Now that i have had some time to feel the real effects of having a truley divers environment, i have had the privaledge to truly appreciate everything diveristy has to offer. The different lifestyles, personaalities, point of views, languages, religions, music, and culture in general is overwhelming to me and feel as if i was wrong to feel out of place at the beginning and ive relized that to me they were the different ones at first and they probably saw me as the different one. Now we both see eye to eye and realize we are experiencing Americas true nature as a mixed nations where everyone is equal and equally different.
