This document discusses a reading from the book "Who Speaks for Justice, Part 5: Culture" and encourages critical reflection on culture. It prompts students to think about why cultural beliefs and behaviors exist, rather than just what they are or when they occur. Students are asked to consider what culture they practice, where it came from, how it impacts their own actions and thinking, and how it affects others. The reading suggests that cultural and social influences do not provide definite explanations for why societies are a certain way and calls for mindfulness of cultural norms and patterns of behavior.
