Unit 5 DB I had an experience early in life when it comes to a socialist society. As a young kid around eight or nine me, my sisters and friend girls watch our brother and guy friends go to the Boys Club of Memphis every day. We were a part of girls scout and they were a part of boycott but they had the Boys club to go to after school and weekends. We would stand outside and wonder want went on in there and wanted to be a part of it so bad. We were told that because we were girls we weren’t allowed. At that time neither of us understood why.

Other city changed to and now their Boys and Girls Club everywhere.

Social Structure Introduction The legacies of cultural syncretism in the Americas and Africa can be compared and contrasted with the resistance to cultural change that westerners experienced in China and India.
