Cultural Diversity and Louie

America is greatly influenced and enhanced by the many versatile cultures which inhabit it. Cultural diversity has added to our economy in such a way that it brings innovated ideas and contact structures throughout the world. International cuisines have come to America through subcultures, have expanded the food industry, and have allowed English Americans to try new foods and flavors. Immigrants have brought with them religious values that greatly differ and vary from those at which were natural in the main stream American culture. The educational development through foreign nationals has led America, as a nation, to excel and be deemed one of the most intelligent nations in the world! Consequently, the subcultures have kept our

The United States of America is a perfect example of cultural diversity. Starting with the Mayflower landing in Massachusetts Bay in 1620, to the Great Migration from 1915 to 1930, to the continual immigration into our country today this country has seen its culture grow and reshape itself over the years. The culture of the United States is diverse but understanding and appreciating various cultures does not always exist within today’s classroom or in today’s society. Understanding or even defining cultural diversity , identifying the challenges cultural diversity brings, or how to face cultural diversity are all issues educators face in today’s classroom.

Kim alleges that Nadal College (NC) discriminated against her by promoting her newer, less experienced colleague (Pete) to a position working with male athletes in a living-learning community instead of her. Title VII could potentially classify this as disparate treatment, meaning NC treated her differently than Pete because she is a woman. However, in this case, NC could easily claim being male was a bona fide occupational qualification (BFOQ) because the job involved living and working with male students. In these cases, the law does not consider it discriminatory behavior to hire an employee of a specific sex because being male or female is essential to the job. With this exception in mind, Kim’s lawyer would likely not pursue the employment discrimination argument as it

What does it mean to be an American? We are all different in this world, diversity includes everyone. Diversity refers to all of the ways in which people are different. The diversity of the United States society is increasing dramatically, due to high rates of immigration. America is built of people coming together from different races, nationalities, religions and sexes. This includes individual, group, and traditional differences. Diversity is a major role on impacting the the United States character, history, and tradition. Diversity made america what it is today. Can our society deal successfully with these changes?

On the other hand, Louie is a kind and compassionate boss. He treats his staff fairly and always makes them a big dinner after the restaurant closes.

"As a Texan, I have known many immigrant's families, mainly from Mexico, and I've seen what they add to our country. They bring to America the values of faith in God, love of family, hard work, and self-reliance; the values that made us a great nation to begin with (Ortiz)". One of our great president, George W. Bush, said these enhancing words and it now concerns me in this day of time. That now the world wants to imprison the Hispanic culture all for varies stereotypes. With President Trump theory of the wall this will cause many more issues not only with Hispanic immigrates but within America itself. Without the construction of the wall, America wouldn’t be wasting money, it will keep generating diversity and wall wouldn’t go against our founding father's rules and regulations.

I interview someone named Xavier Smith over the phone, he works with my Uncle at a. I ask Xavier 20 questions about his culture and heritage background. The first question I ask was “what is your full name and does it have a special meaning to it?” He told me that his full name is Xavier Smith and that his name is spelt differently in Haiti language, it is spelt Xaviur instead of the American way Xavier. I ask him why does he not use the spelling of the name from Haiti and he said that it is because people usually do not pronounce his name correctly the way how he say it people so, he just decide to go with the how his name is spelt in America. The second question that I ask Xavier Smith was “What

I am currently at a placement site, where there is not much diversity when it comes to race. Many of my students consider themselves white or non hispanic with the exception of seven students. Out of those seven, two identify as African American, three identify as hispanic and the other two identify with two or more races. Besides race, I have diversity amongst gender, socioeconomic status, learning styles, accommodations, and modifications. My classes are comprised of more females than males who come from a variety of socioeconomic backgrounds. Some of the students come from well off families with occupations such as pastors, educators, military personnel, business owners, and doctors while others come from farmers, grocery store workers, restaurant employees and construction workers. Though there is nothing wrong with the occupations of the parents, it is obvious that there is a difference between the

Diversity is a very broad discussion today, it can range from race, gender, sexuality, political or religious views, or even mental disorders. In America, which is basically a melting pot of different cultures in itself seems to struggle with diversity in the one place it really shouldn’t, tv and movies. But how could the entertainment industry affect the way we view others? Simple, through representation. Representation is the act of showing off a particular group of people. Through this, the characters that belong to these groups, cultures or lifestyles act as representatives that show off how they interact with the world. This could be someones first time seeing how a person of a different race, sexuality, or religious/political views and however they are portrayed could become someone’s psychological alignment

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

The United States of America can be regarded as one of the most diverse and progressive countries in the world with people from all corners of the world contributing to the changing culture of the melting pot that is America. Despite this, our government inadequately represents our diverse population, specifically in Congress, with many officials being Christian, older, non-Hispanic white males dominating government.

America is a strong country, but no one ever said it was perfect, and it’s not. I don’t always agree with everything and love all of our choices. I do believe, though that I am very lucky to live here. We get a say to where we want to go, what we want to be, and how we want to live. There are some things that we should do better at, but doesn’t every country?

I was thirteen years old when my mother and I migrated to America. All I could think about was the way in which our lives were going to change and the fact that I would no longer have to worry about my education. I am an immigrant that used to think that the American dream was “something” that everyone could achieve by being persistent and hard working. Of all the nations around the world, the United States of America is the nation that has always been portrayed as the dreamland where all dreams “come true”. Millions of people all around the world, including myself, see America as our only opportunity for a better life; perhaps we perceive this nation in such way because of the nation’s imposing power and presence. We Americans and immigrants
