The American Northeast:

A total of eleven states are part of the Northeast (New Hampshire, Vermont, Maine, Massachusetts, New York, New Jersey, Delaware, Connecticut, Rhode Island, Maryland, and Pennsylvania).Traditionally, the Northeast comprises the geographical regions of New England and the Middle Atlantic.  It is the region on which the Pilgrims settled in what today is known as Massachusetts.The Northeast is home of many largest cities such as New York City, Boston and Philadelphia.Almost 60 million people live in the Northeast, mainly working-class people.The Northeast is America’s most economically developed region.It is one of the country’s most ethnically diverse regions, with population of English, French, Dutch, Italian, Hispanic, and Jewish descent.A famous cultural landmark is the Statue of Liberty, a gift from the French government in order to commemorate the American Independence. The monument was one of the first things that immigrants saw when they arrived in New York City. Throughout history, the Statue of Liberty has become an icon of the United States recognized worldwide.

It me to understand the world and my place in it. for example, (and i know i’m using the terminology ‘historical perspective’ loosely here; some of my examples may be better termed an ‘evolutionary perspective’) knowing that all humans can trace their ancestry back to a common ancestor who lived in southern ethiopia ~200,000 years ago makes me feel connected to everyone on the planet. knowing that some of our ancestors left africa about 70,000 years ago and interbred with more archaic hominin species in europe and elsewhere, me to see the stupidity of white supremacist ‘purity of the race’ themes. seeing how religion was used to enslave people, and how callously lives were thrown away by those in power in the world wars of the past century makes me feel extremely fortunate to be living in the modern era. and, perhaps most importantly is that this knowledge makes me for the sacrifices our ancestors made to get us to this point, and determined to do my part to make the world a better place for the next generation.
