Pop Culture is Good for Everyone!

    Popular Culture began in the 1950's with TV, radios, rock n' roll, and carried all the way out to the present day. Pop Culture is defined as modern popular culture that is transmitted via the mass media and is normally aimed at the younger crowd. There used to be a time where only teenagers were really into phones and being on social media but times have changed. Now there are grandparents with social media accounts and even babies who know how to navigate through certain devices and social media platforms. I I have seen it. My cousin who is only 2 years old knows how to work Youtube and even declines a call that tries to interrupt her video.

    I love that Pop Culture can become accessible in different forms to a numerous audience. Pop Culture can be expressed in many different ways which can reach different type of people. Some examples are being expressed through fashion (which is one of my favorites), art, sports, and even literature which we might see more of during this course. 

    I believe that Pop Culture is good for everyone because it is one way you can talk about real life issues that are going on in the world and have younger audiences really engage and pay attention to what is going on. For instance, if you use a Pop Culture reference that relates to real world issue more people might be able to understand what it going on. Pop Culture is like a way connect everyone of different backgrounds and upbringings and bring everyone to the same page.

    Jada,

    You present good ideas and nicely use the supplementary images! On the other hand, be sure to address the articles/texts in order to support your ideas. They are solid ideas, but be sure to quote in order to supplement and build on your ideas. Also, be sure to proofread for grammar/formatting and meet the word count of 500 words (you have 265). Overall, good effort!

Are We products of Our Environment or Products of Our Expectations?

            Are we products of our environment or are we products of our expectations? I believe we are somehow both. Our environment and expectations both play a part in how we end up as people.           Wes Moore, an author, entrepreneur, and United States Army veteran believes we are only products of our expectations. In some ways I agree with him. Some people do turn out to be exactly what was expected of them. Whether it be the expectations they had for themselves or what someone else expected them to be. Also, whether the expectations were good or bad, those expectations can shape who we are.           The expectations that people have of us can sometimes become the expectations that we have for ourselves. For example, if someone constantly tells a young boy that he will grow up to be nothing, the boy might very well grow up be...
