6 0
b. A group with a shared ancestry or shared cultural heritage - While the word 'race' refers to differences in physical appearance that are of social importance, the word 'ethnicity' refers to differences based on the culture and heritage. In other words, people who share common ancestors, culture, values and beliefs belong to the same ethnic group. For example, Bangladesh has a number of ethnic groups like Bengalis, Chakmas, Garos, Marmas, etc. The people belonging to these groups speak their own languages, have their own cultures as  well as social systems. For example, the Chakmas have a matriarchal social system, where the women are the dominant members of  the families.

How does the media impact our beliefs and values in a positive way
dlinn [17]
<span>The media impacts our values and beliefs about marriage both in a positive and negative way. It is a well-known fact that the media plays a powerful role in impacting our values and beliefs about marriage. It can both confuse and educate us about how we should be treated, and treat, our partners in a marriage. If we look at the rate that celebrity marriages fail, it can encourage us to end a marriage for petty issues that often can be worked through if both partners are committed to making the marriage work. On the other hand, there are often valid reasons for ending a marriage. The best example where the media can alert people to a valid reason for ending a marriage is when the person is in an abusive marriage and does not know it, or does not know how to get out of the relationship.</span>
