Since America is part of the English speaking world you really can't exclude parts of Africa since American culture is like 80% African culture. Gospel dirived from hymns slaves sang. We created blues, jazz, tap, hiphop, flat irons. (And a lot more that I can't remember at the moment)

Mexico reached far up into America so when it was stolen from them their culture seaped, once again, into an English speaking culture. 

Native Americans had to teach early European immigrants how to farm the land in order to survive (your welcome land stealers)

1. Excuse me? Citation needed on that one... "we created"... OHHH!!! So are you one of those black imperialist/anti-cultural-appropriation types?... Jeez, where do I begin? I disagree with the initial premise, that "black culture" composes any more than 13% of American culture (equivalent to the portion that happens to be black), but even granting that, [b]people in the Congo aren't listening to Fats Waller, Billy Holiday, and Louis Prima![/b] Wherever its inspirations came from, jazz is not African. It's Western.

2. Culture isn't some substance that soaks into the ground. If you purge an area of people and buildings, you purge it of culture. The culture came back due to lax immigration policies, not some magical notion of culture-juice, seeping through the cracks.

3. Okay, so what? How does attitude this help us improve today?
