IMPORTANT NOTE REGARDING WORD LIMIT REQUIREMENTS:

Please note that each and every assignment has its own word limit.

Culture is defined as shared values that are specific to a group of people. Culture is made up of beliefs and values that shape individuals’ morality, manner, and norms. Culture can influence an individual by teaching them what is right from wrong, and how to be an adult (rite of passage), such as a bar mitzvahs (boys), bat mitzvahs (girls), and Quinceañera. Culture also emphasizes values which are core principles taught to individuals on respect, honesty, and kindness and humility, etc.

Culture plays a large role in an individual’s community and public health by affecting their perception of how they express illness, who the patients tend to seek help from, and the type of treatment they prefer. Culture influences a person’s perception of health by whether they are aware of the germ theory, if they believe in fatalism, or if they believe in supernatural forces. If the individuals believe in supernatural forces, then they do not seek help from medical personnel, but from priest, shrines, and other entities who perform spiritual ceremonies and provide medicinal herbs as treatment (White, 2015). If the individuals are fatalists, they believe whatever is happening to them is fated, therefore refusing treatment, thus resulting in health deterioration. I experienced this sad reality from my grandmother who died of breast cancer, she wholesomely believed that God would cure her of cancer, and she refused to use any medical treatment. However, God was able to take away the pain, because she felt no pain while her health deteriorated, but without any medical treatments to assist her faith, she just withered away. She lived 10 years with cancer with no form of medication or an ounce of treatment, just her faith.

Health behavior changes are the efforts healthcare personnel place on changing individuals’ behavior or habits to prevent diseases, such as cardiovascular, and respiratory diseases, etc. However, sometimes, there are barriers that prevent healthcare personnel from improving or changing these behaviors, such as religion, language or beliefs. Therefore, a way public health can aide in changing health behavior is by enforcing cultural competency. Cultural Competency is the ability to understand, communicate, and interact with individuals from various cultures to meet their needs. Cultural Competency is important because it enables healthcare providers the ability to provide care to patients who have culturally diverse background by showing respect and understanding to improve the patient’s health. Therefore, the patients will develop trust in their healthcare providers and work with them to help initiate or improve a health behavior change (Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality [AHRQ], 2016).

Cultural Competency is important to public health because it helps to reduce health disparities by training healthcare providers about knowledge and attitudes towards diversity and teaching them how to reduce stereotyping and stigmatization (Butler et al., 2016) (AHRQ, 2016). These acts will improve access to health services, therefore, allowing the patients to have more utilization of health services such as interpreters. (AHRQ, 2016). Some of the challenges public health professionals face are limited training opportunities for health care personnel depending on where the facilities are located (low-income, rural, and underserved communities). This situation can be fixed if the cultural competency was a mandatory training course funded by the government. Also, another challenge is inadequate provider-patient communication interaction due to language barriers caused by patients who refuse interpreter services.

Answer any combination of the questions below on Ta-Nehisi Coates’ “The Case for Reparation” (Links to an external site.) (one or more). Write at least 300 words. You can use this response to help develop the ideas you will use to support your thesis in Paper 1.

Please write at least 300 words. Reply to at least two other students’ posts — be specific.

1. “In part 2 of this essay (“A Difference of Kind, Not Degree”) Coates paints a grim picture of black Chicago, citing statistics on homicide, infant mortality, incarceration rate, income, and household wealth. How does he use these statistics to construct his argument, and how persuasive is it?”
2. “Coates argues that ‘America begins in black plunder and white democracy, two features that are not contradictory but complementary’ (para.60). How was democracy intertwined with and dependent upon slavery, according to Coates?”
3. “Coates asserts that ‘one cannot escape the question’of reparations ‘by handwaving at the past, disavowing the acts of one’s ancestors, nor by citing a recent date of ancestral immigration’ (para.57). How, according to Coates, do contemporary white Americans, who had little or nothing to do with slavery, still reap benefits from the historic oppression of African Americans? Why does he believe that there remains a debt to be paid?”
4. “In ‘The Case for Reparations,’ Coates makes only passing reference to reparations in the first two sections. He discusses the concept in detail in Part 3 (‘We Inherit Our Ample Patrimony’), but devotes the next four parts to the history of black exploitation, and white supremacy, returning to the topic of reparations in the final section. Why does he take so long to introduce the main subject of his essay? How does he develop the case for reparations in the four parts that never mention the idea? What would be the effect of focusing more exclusively on reparations throughout the essay?”

I would name my new pet food line SouthernHospitatlity. I would use this name because I think it would be really cool to design a pet food line that tastes as close to southern comfort food as possible. I am from the south and southern cuisine is my favorite, so I would really enjoy incorporating my roots into pet food. I know when I cook southern food at home my dogs sniff the air constantly, smelling all the rich and aromatic seasonings I use when I cook. I would like to create something that doesn’t just look like pebbles in a dog bowl, but something that truly looks like a full course meal for a pet.
