Diversity
United States is the most diverse country I know and the future looks like diversity is only going to grow from here. This brings us to an ever growing diverse group of students in the classroom. Diversity is a good thing to have in the classroom because it educate the students about their peer’s culture and background. But it also means students can grow hatred towards an entire culture or ethnicity because they didn't like a certain person in a culture. They will associate the culture with the student and start stereotyping everyone in that same culture.
This is a dangerous thing to happen to a student who is a young citizen of this country.
Language can be an important problem within a diverse group of students. Having a primary language that is not

This will only contribute to the gap between rich and poor that is present in this society and it put the poor in huge disadvantage in moving further. This happens with gender as well. Girls are still worried about putting a boy in their group and this hinder the growth of both genders.
When talking about gender I have to bring up sexual orientation. This is a time when more people are identifying themselves as gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender. Even though some of the students are accommodating of these orientations, there are still a lot of students out there who see other sexual orientations in an alien way. They still judge and persecute these students by making fun of them or not associating with them into their friend circle. This is a huge disadvantage among the students that get discriminated because they will lose confidence in themselves which is essential when in college and starting a new career. There are many other diverse workgroup as I mentioned above and every single one of them suffer in their own way. It is hard for the teacher to get into solving these issues because often they are

I agree, that economical inequality brings the social inequality, where as a result, we would have a society of unequal opportunities. And this situation directly influence the future of the children, their chances to succeed in their lives and careers. We can clearly see that children with high status are
To begin my personal informative essay on diversity in the United States, I would like to point out what information has had the most influence on how I better understand and relate to others different from how I did in the past. I do not feel as though this class taught me any more than I already know about other races and ethnicities, in terms of, how their ancestors came to America, or what hardships particular racial or ethnical groups have grown through in the group’s history in the United States. What I do feel like this class has done for me is, put into prospective of how often and frequent prejudice and
Throughout the world social problems such as illiterate, elderly, handicapped, minority groups, and poverty have been the biggest part in our society for many years. Some of our social problems had died off, meanwhile, they’re still many problem that we are still facing as a society. One of the major social problem we face is people being illiterate. Being illiterate is meaning a person can not read nor write, and it can also mean that a person is grammatically incorrect. There is as much as 23% of the adult population that are ignorant to basic skills of the 4th grade level. In the U.S. the ethnic group that is most affected by not being able to read or write is

We can find diversity anywhere and in many ways. One clearly example of this can be found in New York city, where we see people from all over the world and we can notice in any corner how diversity this city can be in terms of culture, religion, ethnicity, languages, etc. This city is so diverse that only by riding on the subway, we will encounter hearing different languages, music, we will see different customs, different nationalities, etc.
Social and economic inequalities tear the social fabric, undermine social cohesion, contribute to environmental problems and prevent nations, communities and individuals from flourishing (Pickett, 2015).
As a future leader, the author of this paper thinks that initiating and maintaining inclusion starts by the college’s presidents. Supporting the students equally and providing opportunities for all the students to be engaged in the college programs and activities is very important for the students during their college education. The student Life Assistant Coordinator at CPCC stated that “All the programs we have are open for anybody. We have the Safe Zone training that the people can go to and find a safe zone for the students. There is a lot of activities, such as Honor Society, Student Government, Student Engagement” (Knoll, personal communication, October 12, 2017). Orienting the people including staff and students about diversity and inclusion through providing training opportunity is very important for the student life in college. The college faculty members and the staff should have the training to know how to provide a welcoming environment for all the students.
The generations are likely to continue their status because the children from the wealthy families will continue having opportunities that the poor cannot access simply because they are the inferior people in the society. This is due to the increased need for the society to eliminate inequality, various theorists and psychologists have been for the past years trying to explain how inequality is introduced in the society, its causes, effects as well as some of the measures that should be taken to eliminate inequality in the society.
The impact it has for child Poverty is that it damages childhoods; it damages life chances. We know that the chancellor in UK is preparing a strategy to see how many children are in poverty. It was shocking that 6 out of 10 children living in poverty and have parent working whose income is not high enough to keep the family out from poverty. And too many people have lost job because of recession. That’s why we need to robust child poverty and a commitment from government for more jobs and keep family away from child poverty. And on the other hand
Students from various racial and ethnic backgrounds bring different learning experiences, interactions skills, values, languages, culture etc into the classroom learning situation. For example, I am African and my learning experiences are very different from those that are here. Students from different ethnic backgrounds share their language or vernacular in the classroom

Diversity in classrooms can open student’s minds to all the world has to offer. At times diversity and understanding of culture, deviant experiences and perspectives can be difficult to fulfill, but with appropriate strategies and resources, it can lead students gaining a high level of respect for those unlike them, preferably than a judgmental and prejudiced view.
Just like poverty trap, inequality only favors high-income people and creates poor institutions for the whole society. The poor don’t have access to sufficient amount of assistance to get out of poverty trap.
