Communication
Social media is one of the cultures that most people especially in the 21st century, as the world is currently globalizing each and every new day. In the present day, the digital world of using the internet has brought about so many positive as well as negative effects and it has brought so many people together from all over the world through sharing of information using the social media. As the digitization process is aggravating at a faster rate, the more there is the importance of having the computer skills all over the world. However there are digital inequalities that are attributed due to lack of computer skills, age, lack of interest and lack of access. According to a report that was carried out in UK, almost all the youths aged between 16-24 years who form 99% are regarded as the recent internet users while the rate at which the adults are using the internet is increasing as the ratio is in every 10 adults, 9 adults have used the internet within three months in 2015 (Office of the National Statistics 3). This means that the use of internet has increased rapidly even to those that are to adults.
Another surprising statistic is on the black people culture. According to Monique Morris, 67% of the National Football League players are made up of the black African Americans. 92% of the unsportsmanlike behavior penalties are given to these black Americans (Morris 1). This is believed by sociologists to be as a result of the negative reaction to self-promotion especially when demonstrated by a black American player.
