...Christmas – Religious Ritual Christmas celebrates the birth of Jesus Christ, who Christians believe is the son of God. His birth date is unknown because there is little information about his early life. There is disagreement among scholars on when Jesus was born so Christians celebrate Jesus’ birthday on December 25. The word “Christmas” comes from the old English “Cristes maesse”, or the mass of Christ. There are quite a number of different symbols involved with Christmas. The mistletoe is a commonly used Christmas decoration. By tradition, people who meet under a hanging mistletoe are obliged to kiss. Mistletoe has pagan associations. Images of Santa Claus, also known as Father Christmas, snowmen, reindeer, and candy canes are seen in cards,...

...The Cultural Difference Of Two Growing Populations In the article “Vodou Nation: Haitian Art Music And Cultural Nationalism” the author states that “The relationship between cultures can be constructed as oppositional” (“Largey” 106). But in reality cultures that vary from one another can share two or more of the same things whether it may be music, food or even religion. Cultures can also share a few differences such as rituals, fashion and traditions. There are many similarities and differences between Haitian culture and North Indian culture, such as customs, tradition and religion. There are many similarities between northern Indian music and Haitian music. For one Haitian music and northern Indian music both use modern instruments such as the guitar, organ, electric piano and synthesizer, also both of their music is a reflection of their own community. Macknson Aldor, a young Haitian man that was interviewed, states that “Haitians are very hopeful, cheerful and keen people.” What Mackinson Aldor is saying is that their music is rythmatic and upbeat just like northern Indian music due to their personalities. Although Northern Indian music can sometimes be upbeat they tend to have mellowness to their music every now and then, this is because their music is based on Persian performance and traditional Hindu. However Haitian music is also completely different from North Indian music, simply because North Indian music comes from a general landscape of Islamic social civilization...

...214) There is a real need for market segmentation because different customers have different needs, and it is rarely possible to satisfy all customers by treating them alike. When you target a market, you are basically recognizing the fact that customers are different and have different needs. A respectable market segmentation will result in segment members that are as similar as possible within the segment, and as different as possible between segments. Variables to Segment Target Markets Geographic Segments Examples of geographic variables are regions, which include continent, country state and even neighborhoods; next there is size of metropolitan area segmented by population; then there is the density of the population, meaning is the target urban, suburban or rural; lastly, climate could be another segment. Demographic Segments Some demographic segmentation variables include: age, gender, generation, family size, income, occupation, education, ethnicity, and religion to name a few. Jayson DeMers, a Forbes Magazine contributor states, “a strong understanding of your audience is one of the best ways to ensure success” (DeMers, 2013). He also states that, “demographic profiles are limited in their potential to uncover motivation and buying patterns, but you should always build you profiles on a solid demographic base” (DeMers, 2013).

...In this paper I will analyze and describe the consumption behaviors and sources of influence associated with such widely recognized cultural occurrence as Christmas. “Christmas is a mixture of celebrations, personal behaviors and attitudes, rituals and myths, the selling and buying of gifts, and public and private get-togethers. They all are brought together from ancient pagan festivals, various ethnic traditions, the biblical stories of Jesus’ birth, historic religious traditions, practices and beliefs, and material business strategies that are all focused around December 25th” (Sherbondy). How much do we actually know about the history of Christmas? Some might be completely surprised that December 25 is an approximate date of the birth of Jesus Christ. The exact date of his birth was unknown, so early Christians chose that date “to correspond with the day exactly nine months after they believed he was conceived” (Crock). The current culturally accepted forms of consumption behavior became established over time. “For centuries it was common to give Christmas gifts to friends and relatives at Christmas. However hanging out stockings to be filled with presents was first recorded in parts of England in the early 19th century. It became common in the late 19th century” (Lambert). “The sending of cards at Christmas time evolved from the practice of giving small, inexpensive favors to wish distant family, friends, and acquaintances well over the holidays. Over time, this...

...Blackface Chic: High Fashion, Racechange and Cultural Tourism Race, Identity, and Public Culture Popular cultural representations, in particular those in the fashion industry, have recently reinvented a historically loaded image in their performances: blackface.1 In the past several years, blackface and other images of physical transformations of race have appeared in a number of high and popular fashion contexts including a “yellowface” fashion show in Shanghai sponsored by Karl Lagerfeld, supermodel Heidi Klum photographed wearing only chocolate syrup, an issue of French Vogue featuring a white model in black body paint and elaborate “African-inspired” costuming, a photograph in V Magazine of two models, one in blackface and one white, wrestling, two episodes of America’s Next Top Model involving racial and biracial transformation, and an editorial naming American Apparel and showing a woman in blackface. Blackface, though in a contemporary form more accurately described by the term “racechange,” or the performance of one race by another (Gubar 2000), far from being taboo have become an aesthetic in the fashion industry. Though popular magazines and newspapers such as Essence and a number of fashion blogs have responded to particular instances of racial transformation, there is relatively little scholarly work on the rise of racechange in contemporary fashion. This essay attempts to fill that gap in scholarship by examining racial transformation through...
