Transculturation is when a subordinate culture takes aspects from a dominant culture and manipulate them into their own new ideas. This can be a good or a bad thing, considering taking from another culture typically involves appropriating said culture and not getting permission from the dominant culture to use aspects of their culture. But it can be a good thing because they are honoring and showcasing aspects of the other culture. It is seen as as a positive thing from the subordinate culture that is taking from the dominant culture because they respect the aspects they are stealing. It is seen as a negative thing from the dominant culture that are being stolen from because the aspects that are being stolen from them are seen as theirs and only theirs so it is seen as disrespectful.

We have read the following texts this week:

Beyonce’, “Formation”

Pose, “The Category Is Royalty”

Pratt, “The Arts of the Contact Zone”

For this activity, you will create two posts that offer academic summaries of “The Category Is Royalty” and “The Arts of the Contact Zone”. Each post should have:

A focus on each text’s presentation of identity and creating “mixed” texts.

A “packed” introductory sentence

Sentences that use the creator’s name, signal verb, and concrete explanations of important ideas or moments

2-3 paragraphs that group the important ideas or moments logically.

If you finish the summary task:

1. Review your summaries of the previous texts.

2. Create a new post that notes what is missing from your previous summaries.

1. Explain what work you will need to do to use this summary in Assignment #2.

2. Connect this “review” post to the original summary post.
