Etic Vs Emic regarding Rites of Passage Name: Institution: Introduction The American culture changed drastically as a result of the introduction of the African individuals within the vicinity of the American continent. The African people grew their culture and spread it to the American natives. Cultural exchange emerged as a result of the intermarriage between the Americans and the Africans giving rise to the African-American individuals. Initially Africans had their ways of conveying their culture to the people like the rites of passage especially the initiation rites of which serves as a unifying factor. The African American individuals adopted the initiation and made it their common social needs. However the Americans natives came to an understanding of the interrelationship that they had with the Africans in which they opted to adopt their culture.

Most of the activities that involve self-governance since most of the performances involve ritual and cultural practices. To the American individuals the activity of performing different celebration and cultural practices during the transitional processes is minimal. Most of them have opted to adopt the African American cultural events. This implies that the primary unit that changed most of the American cultural activities was brought in by the Africans. However it is imperative to conclude that the American society is now composed of different cultural activities which serve as a functional unit to the whole community. Reference Kessenich L. (2013).
