#globalstudies150 My dad just gave me this book and I’m excited to start this read! It talks about concepts we’ve learned from class and relates to the undrowned! GS150 has made me fond of expanding my knowledge on socialization and investigating why things are the way they are!
@Ro_MercedesA You got this, I believe in you Mercedes! Look back at previous work you’ve done regarding your object and how it applies to GS to get inspiration! I remember you wrote about SUVs and the scapes; maybe try adding that in your infographic! #globalstudies150
#Globalstudies150 I never thought I’d be one to be excited about the weekly paper... Recently, that has changed! Each week my friend and I analyze the WSJ newspaper FOR FUN! Since everything is digital nowadays, I find physical newspapers appealing and nostalgic!
@LC22Lisa I believe the single story on how men should behave in society is toxic... It's been heavily socialized that "men don't cry" and if they do... they typically get tormented. Thus, men don't usually get to fully express their emotions without judgment. #Globalstudies150#Sinking
#Globalstudies150 This video pretty much sums up the public discourse I found in my research process! It thoroughly explains Apple's marketing, popularity, and how the Apple Watch has evolved over the years.

#Globalstudies150 Recently I've been watching these types of videos because it's entertaining to see all sorts of cultural capital and individualism within celebrity homes!

@Ro_MercedesA I agree!! It’s something we don’t give much thought but when we do… it’s honestly life changing! Ever since I read the refrigerator object book, I haven’t been able to look at my refrigerator the same! 😆 #globalstudies150
https://t.co/qZyinWKuOH I found this video highly interesting now that I have knowledge on cultural capital! In 7 minutes she flaunts her valuable possessions and luxurious home. 🎨🚘💸👩👧👦🏘 #globalstudies150
@KarleighCross92 110% feel you! It hits me every time the floor of my room gets covered with clothes because there's always STILL a closet full of clothes I don’t wear… I try to steer away from the temptation of spending mindlessly and giving in to the latest trends & fads! #globalstudies150
This week I did a lot of research on Apple’s company values and their effects on capitalism. I discovered that they have reconstructed their vision and have committed to becoming a prime example of ethical capitalism!! 🌎♻️📲👩🏻💻 #Globalstudies150#Apple
@JizelleS2 For starters, the vast majority of mainstream media is owned by wealthy white men! They feed us the information they want us to know and blindside us from the things they don’t... Due to this, we see a BIG lack of coverage on tragedies around the world. #globalstudies150
I started a Netflix original called “Inventing Anna” and it reminded me of a lot of the topics we've learned in class. It does a good job of portraying cultural capital and it highlights the importance of status/qualification within New Yorks's elite. #globalstudies150
When doing the Library Workshop, I came across new sources and got more insight on the cultural capital around the Apple Watch! I now have a better understanding of how big their consumer population is... “The Apple Watch sold 31 million units worldwide.”😲🌎⌚️#globalstudies150
#globalstudies150 This week while analyzing my object through the lens of cultural capital, I was able to dissect its 3 states and realize exactly how big of an impact it has had on my life. Over time my object has become a part of me and my lifestyle! 🏋️🏻♀️⌚🏃🏻♀️
@gs150ak I don't think it was designed for it, but I do think that because of how history played out and how deep the cycle of socialization has been rooted in society... it sadly has become that. A constant battle of class and status that does nothing but divide humanity! #wecandobetter
#globalstudies150 I thought that the “Mass Media and the Global Village” reading was fascinating because it was written in 2016 yet described our reality with zoom in 2020-2022! What's next in store for society and digital living? Will distance get MORE irrelevant?
