1. There are both pros and cons of haveing a diverse society, but the cons are quite minuscu in my oipinion. Firstly having a diverse society means that different people with different points of view can pitch into a a conversation with there oipinions on the matter, bring out a dimension in something that was completly unknowwn to the other people.…
The debate, “Does America Cherish Diversity?” has a great popularity, and has brought a great deal of unique opinions. Patel believes that America cherishes it’s diversity, and McGregor does not think America cherishes it’s diversity. Our class overall believed that America does cherish it’s diversity, but I'm writing this to tell you my opinion not theirs. My opinion on the matter is that America does not cherish it’s diversity, and they should not have to, but they should respect other’s diversity, and others should respect their diversity from them. There are many reasons I believe America does not cherish diversity.…
It is important to understand our diverse in America because there is different types of people in our society. For example our color, race, sex, religion, etc. Although, we are all different we are all equal. Many people seem to judge by looks and it shouldn’t be like that. We should all get to know each other and see the different in our country.…
Recently, a lot things like Trump temporarily banned immigration from 7 countries, he also wants to build wall on the U.S-Mexico border makes me thinking about Patrick Buchanan’s essay “Can Diversity Destroy Us?” and “A.D. 2041 – End of White America?”. He mentioned “That America is gone forever. Last week we learned that in the last seven years 10.3 million people, almost all from the third world, entered the United States, more than half illegally.”…
America is one of the greatest countries in the world today and this is because of things that happened in its past. The diversity of immigrants from all over the world has impacted how Americans think. The patriotism and courage of those who serve their country also sets the example for how Americans should act. Americans are diverse due to their humble beginnings, and are patriotic and unified under America.…
Hiring for diversity is an important issue and sometimes it is necessary in public agencies, and also the fire service for many reasons. One reason would be that in these communities there are cultural barriers, which mean that potentially there also are language barriers. This can cause lack of communication between the ones that are providing the help and those that need it and can be extremely frustrating for the providers. Hiring people that are bi-lingual is a huge bonus for public agencies. In addition, having diversity can ensure that people in the communities feel that their race, religion, culture, gender etc. are being respected and that are also well represented.…
Diversity is a driving force of the world today, and immigration leads to this diversity. People from different parts of world move to various countries for a better life or simply better lifestyle. Individuals and families leave comfort of their own home and move to a foreign country for a better living, fear and challenges that come along with this are beyond imagination. East indians are the second most asian originated population in US, isolation from their own cultural group to settle into a new one is well explained in Anderson’s “Breaking Bread” where Soni Gupta and Najia Pathan recall their childhood memories and relate to cooking then versus now. Cooking is an art of living in east indian families, time and effort that is invested…
Exclusivists, in terms of religion, can be compared with inclusivism and spiritual shopping (introduced later). It is those people that, obviously, taken an exclusivist approach to how they view the growing diversity in The United States. Simply put, it is those that think they and their church is right and that others of other faiths are wrong. In The United States this is mostly represented by Christian Exclusivists, however, this could be because there is more Christians than other religions. Wuthnow does admit that many (but not all) exclusivists view diversity as a negative.…
How can our government be benign if we depend from it as much as it depends from us, the citizens? I don’t think it would be a good idea to aggravate the general population that in a way has much more power than the government it self. I feel like if there would be a day were the government would take advantage of its people, then that would be the day when the people of this country would stand against its government. In any matters where the people feel aggravated by its government am pretty sure the people will have a solution, and if that solution is to overwrite the way our government works then we shall do it. But talking about how or government treats us is very pleasant compared to other countries that only utilize they’re citizens to exploited them in hard labor…
Many Americans born in the United States proved their prejudices towards diversity and immigrants in the mid-19th century in historical documents showing their refusal to even consider Irish or Catholic immigrants for their available positions and the formation of the Know Nothing Party. The influx of immigrants was likely seen as overwhelming and threatening to settled Americans, particularly regarding Irish Catholic immigrants fleeing the Potato Famine, who they felt threatened their Protestant establishments. Due to the lack of fruition in immigrant communities, these prejudices were obviously mainstream enough to affect lives and probably lasted well into the time of the next generation of immigrants as…
It is thought by some people that there is still a race issue in America. America has evolved from slavery and discrimination, but remnants of the past still seem to rear their ugly heads in less obvious, or more socially acceptable forms. The issue I’m currently developing branches from the “Black Lives Matters” movement that has been going strong since recent years. Trayvon Martin’s case, amongst many similar and recent cases has fueled a fire for justice for blacks and other disadvantaged social groups. Ideas on how belonging to a particular racial group may affect one’s life includes the belief that every man is equal; not color but a person’s action determine their situation.…
Impact of a Diverse Nation The United States of America, the nation united “under god, indivisible with liberty and justice”, in the modern day America this is a questionable phrase, because our nation has changed. Our nation has grown up into a multi-cultural, multi-religious, multi-view nation. Our nation has expanded our views throughout the years, but how has affected the political aspect of this nation? Our nation has passed many different types of legislature to accumulate to this change.…
The world now is not what it was centuries ago. Due to countless reasons and aspects as to the evolution of our country, it has resulted in a more various society and culture. With this factor, we are able to observe specific correlations as to why the country is becoming more diverse, the governmental changes it causes, and the ever-growing societal changes. The first african american president, Barack Obama once said, “Now, as a nation, we don't promise equal outcomes, but we were founded on the idea everybody should have an equal opportunity to succeed.…
Do members of minorities groups enjoy equal treatment here in the United States? This is a topic that comes up more frequently in present day times. Minorities are still fighting issues that they encountered during civil rights era. The 14th Amendment of the U.S. Constitution addresses many aspects of citizenship and citizens’ rights. The most notable part of this Amendment promises “Equal protection of laws”.…
In today’s society culture and the lifestyle of one’s self varies among each individual. Across the world there are different types of cultures, each identifying a person in a unique way.
