Assimilate

 While assimilation happens all around us not many people fully understand the term completely. Assimilate means to take in and incorporate as ones own. In simple terms it means to absorb and integrate people, ideas, or culture into a wider society or culture. Assimilation is in everything. As in the play A Raisin In The Sun. One of the plays main characters, Ruth Younger shows a massive amount of worry towards assimilation. Being the only color people in a whole entire building makes Ruth afraid of assimilation. In the play, I believe they use assimilation as a weakness. They use it to show the difference of people and how they are weak.

  Assimilation happens all around each and everyone of us. People assimilate by adapting or taking in a different culture then their own. They do it to fit into society. I believe that at one point we must have assimilated in some way.For in stint learning the language (idioms and slang included), dress the same way, listen to the same music, watch the same movies and shows, and , read the same magazines and books as mainstream society.
