Exploring World Cultures: Folk, Pop, and Indigenous

The video by Mr. Sin explores three types of cultures: modern, folk, and indigenous. Modern culture, also known as pop culture, originates in developed countries and spreads through hierarchical diffusion, aided by the internet. Folk culture is practiced by small, homogenous groups and spreads through relocation diffusion, with the Amish as a prime example. Indigenous culture, a subset of folk culture, refers to the first settlers of an area who often face challenges like racial discrimination. The video emphasizes understanding these cultural classifications for AP Human Geography.
