Popular Culture Artifact

Popular culture is observing what is going on in society around the world that we live in today. It includes television, politics, technology,food, language and many more topics. Popular culture can sometimes designate cultural guides that are followed.

Popular culture is relevant in my career field because I work part-time in a special events department and I'm also a part-time bartender. Being able to use current ideas when planning a event helps keep your clients satisfied and ensure them that you understand what is happening in our industry. As a bartender staying current on popular culture issues is a way to strike up conversations with your customers and also can be a way to start networking .

The popular culture artifact that I chose is the cast members of the reality television show Basketball Wives.
It is a show that has a cast of African-American women(which I am one of). The artifact continues to show how much we like to see reality television and how much these show have become part of popular culture.
