the subculture project begins with the selection of a subculture or co-culture in the United States during the current time. In this case, the dominant culture would be the U.S. culture. This clearly changes as the country being focused on, e.g. France, England, Iraq, etc, becomes the dominant culture.We are dealing with USA co-cultures.
The subcultures or co-cultures are the various groups that live in harmony with the dominant culture, which means that 50% or more of the dominant culture accepts the subculture or co-culture. (Countercultures or subgroups live outside the value system and are not accepted by 50% or more of the dominant culture.)
NOTE: This project is to focus on a “co-culture”, not a “counterculture.” Examples of co-cultures could be for example. based on ethnic or cultural identification, religious beliefs, lifestyle choices, atheism, ageism, gender, recovery status, e.g. alcoholics, or general belief systems or group identity found living in harmony within the dominant culture for the most part but with friction or conflict when interactions occur, Examples from last semester were Foster children, hearing impaired, returning prisoners, obese co-culture.
For my Sub-Culture I chose Hip Hop/Rap
