American culture

The person who put this must not of heard about the American West, philly cheesesteaks, or Hummers? I vote hippies to stop making dumb oxymorons here.

Ever hear of the American Indians?

its not cuz of that
american culture.. haha
america has NO culture whatsoever
their language is made of different languages
there are NO american roots whatsoever
and their culture is O% own too haha
its all hispanic, european, and all that. haha

A culture made up of different cultures is also considered a culture. To take up your theory is to say the all the countries in the world don't have their OWN cultures because they're made up of different ethnic groups (migration is what makes cultures and countries). Europe was made by Homo erectus travelling from Africa, Hispanics are a mix of a bunch of ethnic groups…you, my friend, don't have culture!

haha i love how this is an oxymoron

what is american culture? sense americon culture can mean north or south america and the u.s is such a melting pot .

Is it Oxygen Moron? Could anyone explain to me what does this really mean?

american roots are those of the settlers arriving from different countries and planting their roots. that means that australia has no roots, neither does Canada…or you might just be wrong…yes, i think you are!

look it up man

brilliant!

brilliant!

American Indians were not the first here. In fact they were drop offs in about the middle of the migration of man as he spread from Africa to the Americas.

For those not understanding what the commenter was trying to tell you, you should probably watch ” the journy of man” if describes how over 50,000 years man migrated from Africa to all other parts of that world.

However the poster who said that culture is created it correst. Groups that dropped off and began living according to values they created, along with languages they created and more. became cultures.

Anthropologist here…
This is a load of crap. The end.
thank you, have a good day

Second anthropologist opinion here. If the United States population’s collective history, connections, beliefs, and current actions by your definition is not ‘culture’ because the people themselves have genetic roots from around the world, then let us examine the question, “How far back does one’s genetic history have to go in a region before one is considered integrated ‘culturally’ within that region?” If we make recent immigration and settlement the criteria by which we disqualify a prospective cultural presence, then we must also define ‘recent’ within that context. Under your theory, one might possibly say that the only human settlement on earth with a culture is the San tribe in Africa. Everyone can from somewhere. Most Americans may have emigrated more recently from their respective countries of origin, but it is hardly the first time a country’s inhabitants have blended their cultures, languages, beliefs, and lifestyles together- nor, of course, will it be the last.

Anthropologist here… America has a culture… it’s just been vilified and depleted  because of disgraceful people like the ones on this site.   Thank you…

Ever hear of a little thing called Rock and Roll, what about Jazz or the Blues?
