Africana FolkloreAuthor: Necko BaileyProf. C CovertDue: 12/12/2013 The power of football in uniting the people of the Eastern world.
Introduction • Football has been around for many years, still there are people who fail to see the significant roles the activity plays in our society. This is one of the few things that inspired me to conduct this research. As a former student-athlete, I believe it is relevant to show the importance of sports in our society. This has led me to develop the topic; “The role that football plays in uniting people in • the eastern world.”
How does football relates to my future career • I aspire to be a Telecommunication Engineer, and I came to realize that my future profession has been greatly and neatly integrated in professional sports in so many ways that one can say they are made for each other. Which is why I decided to prove that sports is a very significant part of society; it’s among the most customary folklore, and plays a great role in uniting people. Also I want to show how my future job is contributing to things that are important to the human-race, things such as unity.
Diversity in language • Social sites like FaceBookshows us that soccer so unifying, that people from all different languages and cultures play, watch and enjoy the game together with no barriers. It is almost as if football it self is a language, it is almost like a religion.
The football community in the eastern world fight against racism.
