Summary, "The Culture Of The Nacirema People"

1. The writers of History: The Lighter Side, in there comical, "The Culture Of The Nacirema," published in 1998, addresses the topic of explaining and telling how the Nacirema people are very contradictive and argues that they are the american people.

2. They support this claim by showing how the people can love cats and dogs then kill them, there beliefs support equality yet they are violent and judgemental to each other, and finally how they consider themselves wealthy and outcast the "poor".

3. Dr. Eous's purpose is to inform the American people how we act. 

4. They adopt a convincing tone for their audience, the readers of "The Culture Of The Nacirema People," and others interested in the study of antrhopology.

Personal Research Project

Something im interested in is mustang cars.  I prefer the older ones.  I like how muscle cars look but especially the mustang.  They have distinct headlight and backlight shapes. 

I would like to research which is the best and fastest and strongest one ever built.  Then i would like to own it.
