Diversity, Multiculturalism, And Globalization

Diversity a word often brings in the world of business and in the news. In certain cultural group, it is lip service to the public to alleviate those who have felt undermine by leaders of corporation and public official. On the other hand, immigrant has traveled to distant land for many centuries. Minority has seen prejudice based on personal ideas without any fact. In the United States and Canada, Multicultural groups do have opportunities that are available according to the law of the land, but businesses have the right to refuse within the purview of the local laws. Lastly, minority cultures sometimes feel unwelcome by the dominant culture. As a result, they have seen economic deficient and psychological scars from years oppression. The

Make introductions. Show appreciation for the whole person; go beyond their role and responsibilities. Add tidbits that are unique to the individual. Use the language of belonging: “This is Sara — she is part of our research team.” The word our really adds the feeling of

The United States of America has been called a “mixing pot” since the birth of the nation. Everyone, especially politicians and educators, will proudly declare that the U.S. is a land of unmatched diversity. The U.S. seems to always be portrayed as a highly cultural territory, harboring a vast population of many races. Admittedly, the United States has come a long in terms of eliminating racial barriers and pursuing equality. All around the world, America is seen as a country of colors, yet mass media does not recognize that fact.

The idea that "diversity" is one of the country's great strengths is now so firmly rooted that virtually anyone can evoke it, praise it, and wallow in it without fear of contradiction. It has become one of the great unassailably American ideas, like democracy, patriotism, the family, or Martin Luther King.

Canada is a place known to be a multiculturalism country to many. Although it is meant to be a positive thing in many minds, it is also tended to be a negative thing. This is shown in the essays “No Place Like Home” by Neil Bissondath, and “Immigrants, Multiculralism, and Canadian citizenship” by Will Kymlicka. Both essay make powerful points to why multiculturalism is negative, but also shows the method that the authors use to write such as racism, how both author’s use the pathos and logos method, but also false premises.

Due to all the immigration from countries all over the world, America has become a place of diversity among many races and religions. Although, this diversity came with prejudice that has gotten better since the late 20th century, it is still alive today. America became a place for, as Maya Angelou would say, “The Tree, River, and Rock” or peace, security, wisdom, humanity, and freedom to all people regardless of their background. Because of this, the early 21st century has brought many new opportunities for people of all cultural backgrounds.

Demographics in America have been reshaped in the past century. With an expansive immigration rate, the United States has grown to be a diverse country. The United States is quickly moving from being a nation that has a White Majority and minority groups of different races and ethnicities to one in which no single racial or ethnic group will be in the majority (Wilson, Gutierrez, Chao 2013). Although many minority groups are continuing to migrate on to U.S territory, some have surpassed others making them the more dominant minority in America. Latinos have surpassed African America as the largest minority, and the portion of the country that is white has fallen from roughly ninety percent to sixty percent (Hajnal, Rivera 2014).

The United States of America is a very diverse country. It is filled with people with different races such as African Americans, Hispanics, Asians, Native Americans, India, England, and so much more cultures as well. Although the country may be diverse as the nation as a whole, it is not diverse within the country. David Brooks argues that the country is diverse in terms of social and personal lives. He also stated that “the United States might be a diverse nation when considered as a whole, but block by block and institution it is a relatively homogeneous nation” in which he may state that this is true he argues that “we are finding places where we are comfortable and where we feel we can flourish. But the choices we make toward that end lead to the very opposite of

Cultural diversity, or multiculturalism, is based on the idea that cultural identities should not be discarded or ignored, but rather maintained and valued. The foundation of this belief is that every culture and race has made a substantial contribution to American history. However, many people remain opposed to the idea of multiculturalism, or cultural diversity awareness, while others often support it and yet have no clear idea of how it should be taught. The diversity of the United States is truly astounding, as many different ethnic and racial groups have contributed to the social,

Diversity is an ongoing discussion in day-to-day life. Not many situations occur without diversity having a role. There are a multitude of topics that introduces or involves diversity, to include age, sex, race, gender, ethnicity and so on. Prior to participating in this Diversity Awareness class, I’ve always thought diversity was more geared around discrimination and racism. Through weekly readings and discussions, I have discovered that diversity is much broader than that. There are many countries that are mixed culturally

American society is becoming increasingly culturally diverse. The 2010 Census indicates that the racial and ethnic makeup

What does Diversity and Multiculturalism mean to me? I believe that diversity has become so much more than just the basic qualities of race or gender. It now includes all qualities that make everyone unique, as individuals or as part of a larger group. It is also the acceptance, respect, and understanding of these unique qualities that makes diversity work in a given society. Multiculturalism is the system that is centered around the respect for and the promotion of ethnic and or gender diversity in the society. Multiculturalism is the status of several different ethnic, racial, religious or cultural groups co-existing in the same society. Today, in the U.S. we already

If the quote above is to be believed, then the strength of a classroom resides in the differences rather than the similarities of its students. In my Pedagogy course (PEDG 5367) concerning diversity and multi-culturalism, I was able to realize first-hand how diverse a classroom of learners can be. I was instructed to create a unit plan (see Appendix A- Manners Across Cultures Unit Plan) that comprised approximately five hours of instruction time. In the unit plan I had to reflect on diverse learners and include instruction which met the needs of several different populations of students including special

Most people have faced discrimination at some point in their lives, this is brought about by ethnicity appreciating the fact that we come from different backgrounds. Diversity is described as the inclusion of different types of people, it is vital for the community because diversity brings peace and co-existence as people interact well with each other and respect everyone despite their differences.
