Each of us uses remnants from our culture to determine our cultural identity and the social rules associated with membership. This may include language, food/drinks, values, belief systems, rituals and traditions, techniques, tools, and skills that can be associated with each culture. These practices and behaviors help determine various social interactions that influence relationships.
In your initial discussion post, explore these topics:
· Describe your cultural identity using the culture wheel.

· Describe the advantages and disadvantages of the use of the term multiculturalism.
· Summarize the historic and systemic societal bias found in the helping professions (i.e., public health and law enforcement) against minorities.
· Analyze the methods used in medicine against various groups in Nazi Germany that can be attributed to antisemitism, genocide, and ethnic cleansing.
