1. Do you think that the examples in the slideshow of Black women relaxing and straightening their hair to look "more professional" are an example of cultural imperialism where western and white culture has been forced on black people, or do you think it is a natural blending or sharing of culture? Why? 2. Do you think that the examples in the slideshow of customs in Japanese business culture are an example of cultural imperialism where Western culture has been forced on Japanese businesspeople, or do you think it is a natural blending and sharing of culture? Why?
3. Do you think cultures who have been accused of cultural imperialism (for example, American culture spreading through music and television) should do something differently? Why or why not? If you agree that dominant cultures should do something differently, explain one of your ideas on how powerful cultures could share their artifacts in a better way.

1) checks and balances- this idea is implemented in the constitution to ensure that no one branch of the federal government gains too much power. for example, the legislative branch(congress) can approve a bill that will then be sent to the executive branch (president). if the president does not like the bill or thinks that it violates the rights of citizens, he/she can veto the bill. vetoing the bill stops the bill from becoming a law. this check on power ensures that congress makes laws that do not violate the rights of citizens.

2) anti-federalists do not want to ratify the constitution unless it includes a bill of rights. the anti-federalists are worried that the constitution gives too much power to the federal government. having a strong central government caused problems when the us was still part of great britain. this is why the anti-federalists are fearful of this type of system.

3) federalists want a new constitution passed because it will fix america's weak political structure. before the us constitution is implemented, the constitution being used is known as the articles of confederation. this constitution has an extremely weak central government, allowing for disunity among the states.
