E002 Bourdain Essay 3 Q's

Question 1 Answer"

Haiti's art embodies skateboarding norms in many similar ways. An example is a high percentage of artists in Haiti will never make money from their work. As skateboarders, a high percentage of us will not make money or benefit from out work. This must have a connection with both cultures passion for the passion not  for money. Haiti is low on resources and skateboards don't have money but we still manage to for fill our passions.

Question 2 Answer:

The governmental structure of Haiti is corrupted and not pushing for growth and development of the island. Where as skateboarding culture has no structure, not one leading or ruling, but manages to evolve in both the level of quality and community wise.An example is Haitians vote, but the leader or president is ultimately predetermined regardless of the votes. Soon after said leaders usually flee the island and never return while they promised for change. Where as skateboards have no leaders or structure, but the community is what pushes the culture not some gold digging ass wipes making false promises. Both cultures have sparse resources, some more than others, but each is moving towards different directions that differ from each other. Its sad that Haiti doesn't have a leader willing to make change for the greater good. But that's what separates our culture. How we want to change.

E002 Essay 3 conclusion


Overall these key points to learn will help you fit in or assimilate into skateboard culture. Aside from all the things you need to thrive or fit in skate culture, it may not be for everyone one. Skateboarding requires a tremendous amount of will power and a body ready to take falls. Maybe you are not into tricks but riding around in that case you wont fall "as much", but there is always a chance of a fall in this lifestyle. All the same it is still your choice to enter or not, but if you do make sure to learn the keys. Language/Etiquette, Mind set and how to associate with skaters and police/security.
