Relocation

The African American culture developed since the slaves were brought over and their basic chants and drums developed into hip-hop. I love hip-hop and I thank the African american people fro bringing it into existence every day.
Relocation is the movement of a culture/people from one place to another bringing ideas or physical items with them to give to others.

Hierarchical
![Picture](/uploads/1/6/4/3/16433774/468680.gif?168)
Certain kinds of people get it first. (usually the rich) And after a whicle everyone else gets it as it gets cheaper.
An example of this would be the computer, they started out being ridiculously expensive but now I have one of my own and as a matter of fact, my family has four. Thank you hierarchal diffusion!

Contagious Diffusion

When an object or idea or disease has no bounds and spreads to everyone no matter what their differences may be. An example of this would be when I had a tragic case of the Bieber Fever. His song "Baby" will truly be remembered as the most inspirational vocal performance of all time. His voice does not discriminate, his voice is a gift to all no matter who they are or what they came from.
Stimulus

Stimulus diffusion is when an idea or thing is transferred from one place to another but the place recieving the idea only accepts part of it and not all of it. An example of this is when the Islamic people accepting the idea of monotheism but they didnt accept Jesus and yet they didnt believe that a messiah was coming like the Jews did.
Time Distance Decay

Things are popular in a concentrated area but it gets less and less popular as it goes farther out into rural and other areas. An example of this is the popularity or Macklemore. He was very well known in Seattle but as someone got farther away from Seattle, less and less people knew about him. Now he is gaining popularity around the U.S.

Absorbing Barriers
![Picture](/uploads/1/6/4/3/16433774/8037831.gif?154)
When a certain area is blocked from revieving any ideas or things by a landform or simply by the recieving place refusing to allow any ideas or things into their region. An example of this is North Korea which doesnt allow any ideas in from the outside world. In essence absobing barriers cause isolationism.

Permeable Barriers

Permeable Barriers let in some ideas but reject others. An example of a permeable barrier would be Iran, they allow ideas and inventions involving military technology into their nation but any other ideas that go against their islamic beliefs are kept from entering by their barrier of government.
