Diverse Neighborhood

A person's personality traits develop for various reasons. These reasons can stem from the interactions of an individual with the environment along with biological influences. These environmental influences can be living during segregated times, being reared in a single-parent family along with living in a household with an income below the poverty level. Each of these environmental influences could lead an individual to harbor negative feelings for those of other races or feel a sense of longing to fit in. Having a group consisting of individuals from diverse backgrounds working

Today I am still living in the house I was born into in Hartford, South Dakota. I’m a junior at West Central High School and plan to go to Colorado State University to further my education. In the future I would like to

The world is made of billions of people from all walks of life. Each individual have diversity in areas of the spoken language, food, and religious

living in an extremely diverse neighborhood effects your understanding of how people of different races should be treated, and how you should be appreciative of the privileges you were able to receive as a child. You always learn about the different cultures of different people, their beliefs and habits. Living in a place where you are revealed to all these culturally diverse people makes you more accepting and enables you to have more insight of the hardships people face because of who they, and a greater appreciation for the opportunities you are given that other may be denied. According to the Facing History and Ourselves series, Dalton Conley states, “You never really know your language until you study another. It’s the same with race and class.” This explains how being surrounded by people with cultural differences increases the understanding of your own, for it can show the distinction between how people of a different race and class are socially treated compared to people of a different race and class. In all four interviews, they’ve either said that they have become more open to different backgrounds or described the diversity of this neighborhood. From this we can determine that being in a diverse neighborhood has positively impacted how they communicate with others. In my neighborhood, there are also different synagogues and Catholic churches, smaller stores and food stands which is an example that can show how race can affect income. Being in a family where my father works a well paying job, and having the knowledge that there are many people in my neighborhood with low income and cannot get the jobs they want because of their race makes me more grateful for the things that I am able to

My life is quite simple. The only place I have ever lived in is the small city of Seguin, Texas. I have a sister, Sara, who is currently a freshman this year. I attend Navarro High School where I am involved in National Honor Society, Student Council, Interact Club, Photography Club, Varsity Volleyball, Basketball, and Tennis. I also commit my time to volunteer services in efforts to better the community. Some service projects that I have volunteered at are Guadalupe Regional Medical Center, Blue Santa, Navarro Junior Varsity Volleyball Tournament, Bike Rotary, and multiple trash pick-ups. Along with living in a small town, I believe these athletic, academic, and volunteer services have shaped me to be the person I am today. As a result, I have learned time management skills and how to represent myself. I truly believe that this has had a positive impact on my character.

Considering, my father is a veteran from Brooklyn, New York and my mother is an immigrant from El Salvador whom barely spoke English; I was certainly raised in a diverse environment. The disparity of their backgrounds is immeasurable, but their lives has impacted me greatly. Their relationship and love remains strong, even though they divorced when I was an early age. The dichotomy shaped my character, perspective, and my entire state of being. I was encouraged to play sports and excel in my academic pursuits. I am competitive in nature and I continually strive for success in all my endeavors. *somethings missing

The vision for downtown districts will vary from city to city; however, there are a number of policies in place to help preserve and provide affordable housing for low income at risk populations throughout downtown districts. Therefore, the vision for downtown districts should always include some sort of diversity of incomes. Diversity should always be a key component and downtown managers, leaders, and developers are committed to providing and building homes that are reasonably-priced. Low income housing is generally defined as housing affordable to households that make below 50 percent of the area median income. In many instances this means that these individuals will receive public subsidies, or either direct payment goes to the project owner through vouchers and certificates.

All humans have different characteristics which allow them to be unique in their own way including race, ethnicity, gender, age, religion, sexual orientation, and ability status. We are born with these characteristics which we inherit from our parents without consciousness or permission; this is known as the Beginning Step in the Cycle of Socialization. In addition, the location in which you were born and raised has a large impact on how you grow up as a child and also the values and beliefs you have been instilled with. The type of school you attended growing up also has an impact on who you are today. With growing up in various areas, humans are not as open-minded as they perceive about topics such as social justice and inequality. Therefore,

Living in a diverse community shielded me from culture shock and grew an appreciation in me for other cultures of the world. While the people in the US are considered the melting pot, there are situations where

In addition to racial classification and national origin, there are many other faces of cultural diversity. According to Campinha-Bacote (2003, para.1), “Religious affiliation, language, physical size, gender, sexual orientation, age, disability (both physical and mental), political orientation, socio-economic status, occupational status and geographical location are but a few of the faces of

The exhilarating neighborhoods each filled with a vibrant orchestra of personalities held together by subways and buses. The melting pot of mixed backgrounds dwelling in harmony. The dynamic luscious splendor of parks and gardens. This is “the borough of homes and churches”. The diverse, ethnic, and multicultural streets are home to many immigrants. The neighborhoods are indescribable with its music of languages from all around the world, to all the history and memories held together in the sidewalks connecting everything to one. The homes spanning from brownstones with very high ceilings, crown moldings, beautiful original wood floors and sprawling banisters to the more suburban ranch and duplex detached single family homes which are filled

The subject of separate town districts for only one group of society has been overlooking for years. People tend to consider the existence of separated communities as the best and only option. However, I strongly believe that creating socially mixed residential areas may have positive results in the society.
