For this cultural workshop we were again separated into our previous groups and the topic for this lesson was cultural icebergs. In societies we see cultural traits that are visible in society on the surface or above the icebergs, the things we can visibly see. Then there are also things below which may be the cause for what we see above the iceberg. This discussion focused on how we dress, religious beliefs, customs, beliefs about modesty etc. And how those things intertwine and affect one another. Such as how beliefs of modesty can affect the dress of people in specific cultures. It was interesting listening to the perspectives and opinions of my fellow group member and learning about cultural differences from here in America to India and Saudi Arabia.
