Assimilation effecting students

 

           Assimilation when you want to hide away what makes you unique, individual, and special to fit in with others as "normal" like speaking a different language, wear traditional clothes, have a different religion, culture, hair, or skin tone. Assimilation can affect many students because many people follow trends and wanna be like others and its not only in Beach wood its everywhere including Richmond Hill, some girls can't dress like others so they feel ashamed and want to get rid of it or students may not like the way their hair is so they try to change themselves. I believe no one should try and change their culture just to "fit in" because culture is a beautiful way to express yourself uniquely without feeling ashamed, should be something you should be proud of and others have to learn to be supportive because no one is the same in this world everyone has their differences.
