Cross-Cultural Dexterity
We went to a discussion about developing cross-cultural dexterity on Thursday July 15, 2010 that was given by Wallace Goode and Rosita Ragin. I think what we talked about will help me think about who I am. For example, we talked about how others judge people. That related to me because when I see people I don't know, I talk about them. I always judge a book its cover. I know it's wrong and not good, but I do it anyway. They might look mean or crazy, but deep down they are the nicest person ever. What I took from this is don't judge a book by its cover and give them a chance.

Hey Iysha! I think these were the key lessons that Wallace Goode and Rosita Ragin wanted us to learn. I really liked the phrase "not good, not bad, just different" because it reminds me that there isn't one culture that is normal or better than any other. We're just really different! I also liked when we make those graphs of our personalities/beliefs and compared them because we got to see how different all of us in SSP are too.
