What culture does the Nacirema sound like?

it feels like a very mysterious culture, the people of that culture practise weird rituals and other dangerous and questionable acts.

2.What words would you use to describe them?

i would describe them as quite scary and weird people, giving me creepy and unsettling vibes with what they practice.

3.Why do you think we use such words? Does anyone else think differently?

i think we use use these words because we dont understand what they are doing and why they do it. maybe they are doing these practices for a reason.

4. Can you think of any links between the Kenyan context or culture and the Nacirema?

1)I thought it was an early Rwandan culture which had its unique and strange insights of medicine and how it is practiced.
2) A few words I would describe this culture would be different, questionable and strange.
3) I would use these words because the means and strategies they use to heal others are odd and not many people would agree to these types of methods.
4)In my culture i have not seen anything closely related to this type of cultures. Something we do is that we praise gods through dances and different means,

It sounds like a hidden culture that not many people know about.  Creepy. I used this word to describe them as that’s how the text makes me feel about them. I don’t really see any connections between my culture and the Nasirema but one thing that I noticed which is similar is we both have holly water in our culture.

1) it sounds like a culture that has questionable policies and morals, it takes about using torture on elderly people, and stripping away clothes. The temples sound like how the slaves were treated when they were on the slave trade and were being shipped. As a whole the culture sounds brutal and I hope doesn’t exist.

2) I would say terrifying and wrong. The way the people are treated and think of themselves even is not right, in fact it is scary. It is just not right how can you treat people like that.

3) from my upbringing I have learnt that this not how people should be treated.

4)

It sounds like an ancient culture that keeps repeating because of the old peoples faith. I would use devoted to describe them because even though it is not a guarantee that they will recover they keep going back to the medicine men and the shrines. I used such words because the people of the nacirema culture are very loyal to their faith. the thing that my culture and this culture have in common is that we have rituals of removing bad spirits out of people.

It sounds like an indigenous culture, a culture that is not known to everyone. I would use "magic-ridden" to describe them since they heavily depend on magic or use it in most of the parts of their live. I think we use such words depending on what is brought out. Yes, people could perceive the information differently and choose to describe this culture differently. To be honest, I do not know much about Kenyan culture to link this one. However, I do know some people in my culture do believe in magic and some of the beliefs of the Nacirema. For instance, magic is used to avoid pregnancy in some parts of the Indian culture. They also believe in people who get possessed so in order to ward off the evil eye/bad spirit is practiced.

1. What culture does the Nacirema sound like?

this sounds like a questionable culture, because it has very mysterious practises and also very violent ones which referrer to torture and other types of dangerous rituals, which affect them in negative ways such as the one for their mouths

2.What words would you use to describe them?

i would describe them interesting but scary because although we do not understand their practices and culture they also do some very harmful and dangerous practices.

3.Why do you think we use such words? Does anyone else think differently?

i think i used these words because i myself do not understand why they practice what they do, and also how they do it on a regular basis without asking any questions.

4.Can you think of any links between the Kenyan context or culture and the Nacirema?

there are no major links which relate to exorcism, or other things including the getting rid of demons which is practised on a large scale.
