Reflection On Diversity And Diversity

Diversity breaks up every person in the world all up into groups and it affect us all in everyday life. Diversity separates us all by Color of skin, Religion, Age, Gender, Nationality, Language, Major and the list goes on. It affects me on the daily basis like my major in college so I 'm put in a certain class. My color of my skin divides me into another group. No matter what we do or say Diversity will always affect us daily and you can never escape

Diversity and inclusion, with any future clients, should be personalized and should work their alongside rather than for them. This concept is imperative to me and I feel confident that I will execute this as a social worker. However, I need to become assertive with challenging discrimination, oppression and cultural assumptions. I need to attend more conferences that focus on this area of professional development. Next year, as a student with less responsibilities, I am hoping to immures myself actively in discussion about cultural competence. I have the knowledge of what this area cover but need to practice, which is what this filed experience is providing me.

Since its inception America has been coined the “melting pot,” a term that’s intended to encase pride over the vast amount of diversity contained within our country. That pride, however, is nothing more than an idealization of the truth. America is a country of great diversity, but its pride and acceptance of that diversity relies on a contingent tolerance. Diversity is a wide term that can refer to a number of different groups and in this context it is referring to groups of minorities in America, particularly the LGBT community. Perhaps, the best illustration of this harmful treatment can be found in the media, specifically in the form of television. The LGBT community has been subjected to discrimination, tokenism, stereotypes, and fatal

A child’s education is affected by various elements such as gender, race, environment, economic factors, privilege, and more. These elements shape the outcome of a student’s educational experience and learning. They also determine what and how students will learn. In order to create an appropriate learning environment, there should be a sense of community. In other words, the common goal should be helping students succeed and reach their maximum potential. This includes not only increasing test scores, but also classroom motivation and excitement. Schools should be truly committed to the expanded opportunities available to each of its students while continuing to evolve academic and personal growth.

There has been a multitude of famous individuals that have changed the course of human history over the years. With their work being the source of inspiration of many to simply having a likeable, repeatable demeanor, there is no doubt that to be regarded in that special collective of individuals. One of the most famous civil rights leader that advocated for 13 years, Martin Luther King Jr., discertation called, “The Purpose of Education,” that brings awareness to the importance of education and its overall relevance in tepid year of 1947. Dr. King brings clarity to his opinion in the beginning of his paragraph stating, “It seems to me that education has a two-fold function to perform in the life of man and in society: the one is utility and

How could diversity in the United States potentially lead to collapse? There are many elements that contribute to collapse. Whether it’s on a larger scale, like a country, or on a smaller scale, like a family. There is an infinite amount. But the most important one, is diversity. 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.

Having food on the table, a roof over your head, and a job to make ends meet. It is a basic human right. We live in a global era where all people need one another to survive and succeed. Immigrants bring diversity to the United States, along with their cultures, and skills, which help make us stronger as a nation. Without diversity in our society, we would be self-centered, which means we need immigrants. What’s stopping illegal immigrants from coming? The law. The rigorous immigration law came to act in 1965 and it states that in order for an immigrant to come they need to be legally documented in order to be allowed to be in the United States of America. Instead of sending them back to the war-ridden countries that they want to escape from,

It is important to understand our diverse America because every day our population starts growing from people with different backgrounds. Our schools, jobs, and parks there will be people with different culture, religions, beliefs, or color skin. It’s important to understand our diversity because that’s what unites us as a great country accepting those despite where they’re from or color skin. As we grow, we want to teach the younger generation that it’s important to accept diversity and regardless of one's background we are all the same as humans. If you think about it America was made from descendant immigrants who have been here for generations and leaving their print of their culture every day as America accepting their background because

As stated in the previous chapter connection, there are many challenges that stand in the way of urban education. The main issue discussed in chapter 10 of the book “Affirming Diversity: The Sociopolitical Context of Multicultural Education” by Sonia Nieto and Patty Bode, was the issue of bilingual programs never having enough support by schools. In addition “bilingual teachers have been segregated programmatically and physically from other staff members, making both teachers and students feel isolated from the community (p.380)”. This issue has always been highly debated because while some people believe bilingual programs work, others believe the opposite. Regardless of who is right or wrong, the truth is that we live in a country that

Immigrants come to the U.S for hope of a better future for themselves and their family. Not to mention that, they help the U.S to be a stronger and diverse country. Immigrants bring so much to the U.S. For example: their culture, experience, traditions, foods, holidays etc. In the mexican culture; they carry their language, religion, and values. Religion is a big role that is played in diversity in this country. Two religions Mexican bring into the US is Christianity and Catholicism. Immigrants that come from Mexico or any part of latin america are usually very religious and have strong beliefs. Religion in the US has also grown because mexicans teach their kids about the beliefs they had

Mullins High School, a beautiful 84-acre campus, is located west of Mullins, SC. Created in 1923, Mullins High, is one of the state’s first high schools to be accredited by Southern Association of Colleges and Schools (SACS). In 1981, the present building was completed.

Hello Clara, in the first sentence, do you believe that diversity makes America stronger? Or just the overall highly populated land is what makes America strong? But, I agree, the political structure does become different once immigrants start becoming citizens and begin voting. Since we have individuals immigrating from Latin America, Asia, the Middle East, etc. They all have experienced a different background, so they are all seeking a different form of freedom or opportunities. Lastly, politicians are aware of the diversity in America, so when elections come around some make sure to include the wants and needs of the new citizens—formerly foreign immigrants.

Those are the words that I preached to my best friend Juan that still ring through my mind. This was the sentence that proved that I was becoming wise. This was the sentence that could change the world around me.

My heart was a drum constantly palpitating in attempt to keep something alive; in this case it was my adrenaline filled body. Diversity was spread among the talents that put on a show, but after waiting for hours, four men that called themselves Fall Out Boy strode onto the pitch platform just anticipating creating memories. Blaring beats started playing encouraging the crowd to gombol to the angsty song. Glimmering strobe lights illuminated beads of sweat down their flushed cheeks as the scent of sweat invaded my nostrils and the ballad carried on. Suddenly, sound was stopped, the surroundings went dark, people waited, confusion obscuring the attendees minds while waiting impatiently. A peaceful acoustic was strummed as a song began to

A classroom should be filled with a wide variety of languages, experiences, and cultural diversity. An effective teacher understands the importance of culturally responsive teaching, and recognizes the significance of including students ' cultural references in all aspects of learning. Having an enriching classroom that engages all students does not mean making judgments about a student’s culture based on their skin color, gender, or socioeconomic status, rather it means knowing each student in a way that is individualized. According to the authors of The First Day of School: How to be an Effective Teacher Harry Wong, race, gender, religion, financial statue, and skin color is the least important factor determining a student’s achievement. Moreover, demographics and culture are not an excuse for students’ lack of achievement. (pg.80) Acknowledging and embracing a student’s racial or ethnic background is important, but it is just a piece of the educational puzzle. Effective teachers must be culturally responsive, with fine-tuned classroom management skills, and high expectations for all their students.
