Culture And Cultural Aspects Of Culture By Crystal Keshawarz

We all have been grown up into different types of cultures,communities, and backgrounds. On September 20th I interviewed Crystal Keshawarz to get to know her culture and knowledge on culture. We mostly focused on religion and how she was grown up, her life was never an easy life. She always thought so much differently from others and it changed her perception on how women should be outspoken and .
