3). Tell us how this information will relate to our study of humanities.

This information relates to my study of humanities as being very important. One of the best ways to reach people is to be an educator, one who instills wisdom with morals to their students. Humanities are the stories, ideas of these who make sense of our lives in this world. All people are connected to one another and humanities helps us to learn how we can help one another and make people’s lives better, we learn answers about what is right or wrong, or what is true to our heritage and our history. Humanities help us address the challenges we face in our community, our nation, and our world. Humanities emphasize the importance of each culture and their uniqueness of how they live and work. Each tribe, nationality, culture, and religion is special to each person, and we should always respect one another’s cultures and find ways to help one another and build up one another. We are NEVER to tear down any one, or find one culture less important then another, all people are special, and all people have something to give to our world.
