Cultural imperialism

Cultural imperialism is when one culture forces its own beliefs, values and customs onto another culture. It can happen in many ways, such as giving a different culture money so they have to do what the other culture wants, like making them wear certain clothes or act a certain way. It can also happen by making the other culture watch TV shows, movies and listen to music from the other culture, which they might not have done before. Cultural imperialism means that one culture is taking away the other culture's unique practices and beliefs and replacing them with their own.
