PRETTY SIMPLE!! READ THE 2-4 PAGE ARTCLE AND WRITE A 500 WORD ESSAY. !!! FOLLOW THE PROMPT PLEASE!!!! PROMPT: Horace Minor's "Body Ritual of the Nacirema" ("Body Ritual" hereafter) is a tongue-in-cheek exploration into 1950s American culture. He describes material culture (e.g., charm box, latipso), nonmaterial culture (e.g., body is ugly and prone to disease) as well as statuses (e.g., the "listener", the "holy mouth man"). Minor forces Americans to look at their own culture from an outsider' s perspective. Your mission is to update the "Body Ritual" as American live through the second decade of the twenty-first century. What changes from the 1950s to the beginning of the twenty-first century have Americans experienced in their cultures? What taken- for- granted assumptions can be made concerning American culture? Put differently, explain the water that Americans are swimming in, which might look different using an outsider's perspective. I suggesting starting with a summary of the Minor "Body Ritual of the Nacirema" and then transition into your ideas. Regarding organization, it is most important that students connect their thesis with the sociological concepts of non-material culture and material culture.
