What is mythos and how can it lead to ethnocentrism if you

aren't careful?

What will be an ideal response?


Mythos appeals to one's sense of history in the larger culture and the need to be a
member of that culture. While it is fine to inspire people to be proud of their culture, you
need to be careful to not promote ethnocentrism, or the belief that your culture is superior
to other cultures.
