Hello again class,
I was talking to a fellow instructor about our class, and she was very interested in having me share a video with you. This video does not talk specifically about culture, but it does give an interesting perspective on our world. As you know, we live in a global society these days, and everything we do has some effect on someone else. In addition, in order to live in this world, we need to be able to be ourselves while allowing others to do the same without judgment from anyone else. America has often been called the melting pot, but many people believe this is the not the right image for the America of today. Today, many people have started calling America the Diversity Salad. In a melting pot, everything is melted down and loses all individuality. On the other hand, in a salad all the ingredients are tossed in together to blend their flavors but retain their individuality at the same time. It is a much better image in a lot of ways. The video I am attaching helps us to understand this village we are living in called earth. Enjoy the video!
Teresa K.
