Participation In Diversity

[1.1].In your setting, there is a range of policies which formally sets out guidelines and procedures for ensuring equality. The policies must take into account the rights of all individuals and groups within the school as well as considering the ways policies work to ensure equality, inclusion. Policies also pay regards to the values and practice, which are part of all aspect of school life.

I find that the concepts of diversity, inclusion and social justice to be important because they build on each other and have the power to change the world. When all of these aspects work together and are acknowledged then we are able to work toward changing social norms and creating aspects in society that are focused on equity, rather than equality. Of course, social justice should be the goal that we as individuals want to achieve in liberating areas of our that have limited and restrained others. I connect diversity and appreciating diversity with being the foundation to this equation of equality because individuals need to understand that there will be differences between people. I enjoy the statement on, “… Who is in the room?” because it starts to explain the variations in personal characteristics within a group of people. This is going to be part of my position as an RA within Resident Life because a floor’s residence are going to have wide range in their own diversities through their age, sexual orientation, journeys to get to college, race and ethnicity, etc. I am proud to have experienced the things I have and lived and go to high school in such a place like Aurora, CO to where I was able to live and embrace a diverse community. I came to define this diversity to be normal, but coming up to CSU and Fort Collins has shown me how much of Colorado does not have the same kind of standards. The next support beam to building this idea that works toward social would be

Diversity refers to our differences such as culture, beliefs, values, views and life experiences. The concept of diversity is to accept, respect and embrace our differences. When people with these differences unite and share the same group or organization we see a diverse environment. Working in a childcare setting, we have the potential to work with an abundance of diversity. This can be very rewarding but can also pose challenges. Positively, we have the opportunity to promote the sense of individuality, sense of pride and belonging by providing a safe and nurturing environment. Discussing each other’s differences is a great way to learn and become aware of the differences in the world. One example of promoting

In Common hour, we learned about Diversity, Community, & Social Justice. We learned that Diversity and Social Identity are interconnected, one cannot exist without the other. Social Identity is one aspect of Diversity, while Diversity is based upon Social Identity. However, both of these concepts depend on whether you experience Privilege and Oppression. Like Diversity and Social Identity, Privilege and Oppression cannot exist without the other. On the other hand, it’s not necessarily good that Privilege can only exist because of Oppression because people, regardless of their own personal accomplishments, are judged and discriminated by others.

You made some very valid point in your discussion. This country was founded on social and economic diversity in which it does tend to categorize everyone into a certain group to feel a sense of validation of whom they believe they are or should be. European Americans did this categorization as a means to ensure that society will embrace them as the superior race and blacks and Indians as the inferior race. This segregation of humanity was denoted as “high” and “lower” class groups that became interconnected within the social and racial institution. Additionally, these distinctions such as skin color differences in America today are thought to explain perceived differences in intellectual, physical and artistic temperaments and to justify the

I found the concept of being diversity-supportive to be the most important concept of Module 6. I think it is the most important concept in this module because in each part of being diversity-supportive, we are taking an approach that is not only the right approach to take with every individual, but the right approach to meet organizational goals and lead highly effective teams. Because being diversity-supportive means acting proactively, the concept is leadership-driven, it encourages ownership of initiative, promotes thinking inclusively, and has the goal to mainsteam diversity, we can see it really boils down to two things: getting to know people so we can anticipate their needs, wants, and pitfalls; and removing barriers to every individual succeeding to the maximum extent of their ability.

I went to the presentation of the Blackboard Jungle 9 Symposium on Thursday, March 31, from 4 to 5:30 p.m. in the Dudley H. Davis Center. I wasn’t be there on time. When I got there, it was already full of people. I had to stand at the back of the room. At that moment, Nikki Khanna was presenting. She talked about what race are Indians. Also take two examples: The one drop rule & walter white, and Susie guillory Phipps. She wanted us to compare these two stuffs. I was shocked by the next true story that she told us.

Pursuing significance is not merely growing personally due to a challenging medical situation; it is choosing to live a life led for others because of overcoming adversity – to foster a compassionate connection with the community that will give the chronically ill an equal chance at flourishing. Selflessly acting as an agent for change via the promotion of acceptance and inclusivity of people with disabilities within society is significant. Becoming an attorney will allow me to live a life of significance by working toward successfully diminishing the stigma of disabled people being often perceived as helpless or faking their symptoms – since many disabilities are not physically visible – for sympathy from non-disabled people. Consequently, stigma related to disabilities is a major barrier to creating an inclusive community which can

This article is about how several student organizations coordinated to host a gathering sharing their

Minority cultural groups may also find ethnocentrism amongst an organizations cultural majority group to be a barrier. Ethnocentrism is found to be widespread and universal. It can be classified as group level prejudice in cultural minority groups. “Ethnocentricity is the inclination for majority-group members to view their own group as the center of the universe, to interpret minority out groups from the perspective of the majority group and to evaluate beliefs, behaviors and values of one’s own majority group more positively than out groups” (Shimp & Sharma, 1987 as cited in White, n.d., p.474).

Coming from an Afro-Caribbean background, I was fortunate to learn the importance of diversity. I grew up in a mixed culture where language, values and lifestyle, and norms define the people. Having an ethnic background that is a blend of different culture has motivated me to understand and embrace the cultural diversity of others by traveling to and volunteering in different countries such as India. I have also sought opportunities in which I could work with diverse groups of students. Without a doubt, my own unique experiences with diversity will push me towards creating a multicultural space where people from various backgrounds can share their beliefs, language, and different cultural aspects. This would help enhance the diverse community

Diversity is an enormous part in today’s society, and language is part of that diversity. Fienberg-Fisher is known for having a Hispanic majority and because of that I deduced that language was an important factor in the children education. Expecting to encounter with many Hispanic kids and Spanish throughout the hallways, it was a surprise to find the most of them where not technically allow to speak another language outside English. It’s understandable why staff would not want their students speaking another language, but it was shocking, because instead of empowering the children to better themselves they were doing the opposite.

I have grown up in the most diverse county of my state, Prince George County of Maryland. My whole life I have been exposed to all kinds of cultures and people. One most thing I've learned from living in a neighborhood where people are literally from around the world is that all the different beliefs and cultures interlock with each other. They all have the same basic purposes, which is to be pleased in life. However, they have different ways to do it.

Diversity can have a positive or negative effect on a group.Race, Religion, Gender, and ethnicity can affect the way you live around with; such as the community that surrounds you.

My diversity experience began on November 12, 2016 in Wilmington, North Carolina at the Jamaica’s Comfort Zone restaurant. I chose this experience because I feel I need to learn more about Jamaica, Jamaicans and their culture. Also, because there appears to be a large number of Jamaicans residing in various parts of the United States, particularly in New York, Florida, and Georgia (Atlanta). Prior to searching for an authentic Jamaican restaurant, I decided that I needed to do some research regarding the culture of Jamaica; and, as a result of my research, I discovered that the culture of Jamaica is quite interesting to learn about. In fact, Jamaica is a mountainous Caribbean island just south of Cuba (see Figure 1) with a population of approximately
