Diversity, it’s a beautiful thing! I love to see diversity in everything and everywhere. With diversity define in so many ways and people with similarities and differences in people that make up of a community. Diversity is human identity; there are really no two people alike. Diversity to me is many different facets of culture and with in these cultures we have different views and beliefs. Diversity means we are all equal but not the same. These differences are very important to understand but should not be used to predict a person’s value. I see myself as representing a form of diversity by being a black woman in a predominately white community. I feel I bring diversity pretty much everywhere I go. It does not bother me that I am the only black female, in most circumstances I am in. I know that culture plays a huge part in this. My mom has always struggled while raising her kids in great neighborhoods, while always being the only black family in our neighborhood. So as far as defining what culture I consider myself to be part of; within values, beliefs or principles that programs us all. If I would have to define my culture cause no one is cultural free and with my cultural road map; it would be with the white culture. I do know even among the white culture, people are all cultural programed differently. So this is why I identify with the culture road map of the majority! So I see my self-representing a form of diversity by being a multicultural, multiethnic to most
”Diversity is about all us, and about us having to figure out how to walk through this world together.” Was stated by Jacqueline Woodson and is referred to millions of people from different religion, culture, color, etc. Diversity is just like a one of the most important spice in food . If there is no diversity than life will be so boring. Not everyone in a family has the same likes and dislikes; everyone is unique either by behavior or lifestyle or thoughts.
but not just as a whole but as individuals. Being able to open up to people who are different from you and not judging anyone different. The equality, unity, and freedom to express their mood, lifestyle, food, culture, and ethnicity freely and others adapting to it or be mindful of it. The open community of accepting everyone and not choosing or judging something for it’s difference. Diversity is seen in many ways and means many things.
Diversity Defined Simply stated, the term diversity means differences. Differences exist in our society between
In doing some research, I touched on some key words in describing how one looks at the philosophy of diversity, but Cornell Thomas and John Butler couldn’t have said it any better. Here are four main things that describes diversity. Tolerance is acceptance and open-mindedness of different practices, attitudes, and cultures; does not necessarily mean agreement with the differences. Implies an acknowledgement, or an acceptance or respect.
Diversity helps us to see what is all around us and that we are all unique people and that we need to respect
Diversity is showing variety, or being different. It is clear that this could easily lead to the downfall of the United States we know today. When two people have a disagreement, in a way, it’s diversity. But if there is too much diversity, people could develop completely different ideas, which could lead to arguments, and then to separations.
I talk about my race and culture being independent of each other. My race is Chinese, but I associate myself
Diversity is the beauty of America, people from different ethnicities, backgrounds, and cultures coexist peacefully and eventually meld into an almost homogeneous society. But
I am a Mexican American me as living in America my whole life i need to know their culture and understand their traditions. It 's important for everyone to get a chance and learn about other races and ethnicity. By learning about others this helps people come together and be united. We all have different backgrounds and stories of how our ancestors got here and what traditions they brought with them that we still use that we can share with others. Diversity is good we get to learn a lot from different races and ethnicity because it gives people a chance to experience different things other than what they are accustomed to.
It is an opportunity to create an environment where all individuals can contribute their unique perspectives and experiences to the collective knowledge. By embracing diversity, we are able to push past our preconceived notions and challenge the status quo. We can create a culture of understanding and respect for all individuals, regardless of race, gender, sexual orientation or other differences. Inclusivity allows us to see beyond our own experiences and gain new insights from those who are different from us. This helps us become better problem solvers, innovators and collaborators in whatever field we choose to pursue.
Diversity may mean different things to different people. To me, diversity is exactly that, being different and unique. Diversity makes the world a beautiful place to be, and full of interesting and different people. The beauty of human civilization lies in its diverse groups and cultures.
So, in looking at my cultural identity, I am examining both my own labels and what they mean to me and layering on top of that cultural influencers that operate within my life and how the interplay between these layers works. In looking at all of the groups I listed as being important parts of my cultural identity, I think the one aspect of internalized or deep culture seen as an undertone throughout all of them is the theme of independence. I was raised to believe that as long as what I was doing was not hurting anyone else, it was okay. I was also taught early on that I am the only one who can make me happy, and that has to happen before I will be able to help others.
As before the course, I would view cultures from a scientific point of view, I am determined to take the insights of native members of a culture into account in the future. I am specifically more interested in the way how people see and describe their own culture as to what the internet or books might describe. Group processes in Living Diversity Team For the Living Diversity Assignment, my team members and I chose to study Mexico as we all thought and still think this is an interesting country with its own unique culture. My team was very diverse as Joël and I are both fully Dutch, Elena is Chinese but lived in France
One benefit of diversity in society is the exposure, which pushes people to broaden their horizons and have a receptive and open mind. Diversification creates a pool of talent with people of various backgrounds, who have had different experiences
It is a complex concept as a whole. It is a multidimensional term with different perceptions in different organizations, societies and national cultures. One way it has been described is as "the composition of work units (work group, organization, occupation, establishment or firm) in terms of the cultural or demographic characteristics that are salient and symbolically meaningful in the relationships among group members" (DiTomaso, Post, & Parks-Yancy, 2007). But, at the same time as Ola Joesph says, “Diversity is not about how we differ. Diversity is about embracing one another’s
