was born in an average middle-class neighborhood. However, one of the most important aspects in my life is diversity and embracing everybody's differences. Being born in America but raised by Japanese parents made me see the world in two different perspectives since I was born. This is probably one of the reasons why I am so interested in diversity. I also lived in a place and attended school where there were a lot of diversity. I remember in my elementary school, every year we celebrated multicultural

it’s as if you get an instant feeling of family. There are short people with tall people, mixtures of ethnicity, blue-haired with blond-haired, and freshmen with seniors. It is absolutely incredible to see the diversity that roams the halls. It promotes academic excellence and embraces diversity. It’s an unreal feeling to be able to be the person you truly are without
“The Problem with Political Correctness” Although trying to preserve people’s feelings is undoubtedly a good thing, political correctness has created this all encompassing idea that feelings are all important. In many cases explored later in this essay, feelings are preferred over reality and objective fact. Fat pride movements are evidence of the idea of feelings over reality. Fat pride movements essentially are just there to make fat people feel better about being fat. People don’t want to accept
ecosystem from our day to day life. This project on ecosystems briefly describes its’ concept and illustrates how ecosystem considerations change daily our decisions, and why is this behaviour change is important. Acknowledgement: This interesting project has given me a chance to realise the importance of ecosystem and made me study the topic in detail and understand it better. I will like to thank my Biology teacher (Ms. Xxxxxxxxx) for giving this project
But why does understanding someone’s culture matter though? It matters because, “People from different races, etc. have different life experiences that flavors their interpretation of events. These differences can bring strength to the group if it is valued and integrated into its dynamics. However, it can take time, intent and the willingness to be open-minded and non-judgmental about the value the differences
While I agree with Hurston’s idea of embracing ones ethnic heritage, I disagree with her take on how people should deal with racial diversity, I believe that in today’s society many people believe that by saying “I don’t see color” makes the issue of racism disappear, however I disagree with the idea of tolerance being what our society has settled on, which is connected to Hurston’s idea that our race simply does not matter, which I disagree with. Hurston states “Pour out the contents, and there
asking for volunteers to help in the campaign. The opportunity to be a part of the campaign sounded so interesting and so different to the volunteering I have done in the past. After reaching out to the representative of the Christie campaign, he assured me that I got the job. The job would begin in a week, but I still wasn't so sure as to what I would be doing. I mean, how can a 16 year old really be involved in politics? I figured I would be making photocopies, getting coffee, or filling out some paper
proved difficult for me to answer, as I still have not completely found myself. One thing I do know about myself is that I am so disorganized that even my English papers show it. Just as my clothes pile up in my closet, my words pile up on the page. My full name reads Baylie Madison Peter, but most people call me Bay or even Billy Madison. I come from a rural community of less than eight thousand people, in which no strangers exist. Coming from a such a small town forced me to communicate with people
to healthcare. I did not know how to go about addressing the issue, and I was not sure if physicians had to take a course on how to care for those from different cultures. It opens your eyes to see just how prominent this issue is. While it is important for physicians to learn about the culture to provide effective care, I believe that both nurses and physicians should have to take training both in school and while in the workforce. Training to improve cultural competence is something that also
