How did western education help you begin to appreciate your culture?

i will answer from the viewpoint of psychology, in particular, educational psychology.

In the West, psychology scholars define cultures as how it reflect and shape the pschologucal process of their members . The reflective process are made with western style of critical thinking models such as Bloom’s Taxonomy which if taking seriously will awaken the yet to liberate mind.

So, would I be correct to say western education made you aware of the psychological influences of culture, which you observed through the "western style of critical thinking models" which is reflective and thereby liberates the mind?

I post this so you are aware that I am doing homework.

Bloom’s Taxonomy

Masquerade in Ibibio is "Ekpo"

Ancestors have the capacity to bless you. They have more ‘life’ than you, because their spirit, freed from the limited body, can know; can cognize; can bless you. You can feel their presence. So when you pray to them, they can grant you certain boons. They are able to bestow unto you to whatever extent they are powerful

1. Ancestors have the capacity to bless you. They have more ‘life’ than you, because their spirit, freed from the limited body, can know; can cognize; can bless you. You can feel their presence.
2. So when you pray to them, they can grant you certain boons. They are able to bestow unto you to whatever extent they are powerful

1. Have the capacity to bless in what way? How come millions of even Nigerians live and die believing their existence cursed, even with knowledge of their ancestors still fresh on their minds - I mean those who met their great grand and so forth?

2. Meaning most ancestors aren't really powerful enough to impact the lives of their kin?
