If you were to make a suggestion about how our culture should handle diversity over the next decade, what would it be?

Ask the respondents the following questions and record their answers:

• When you hear the word diversity mentioned in the workplace, in the media, or in casual conversation, what meaning do you assign this term?
• Does a particular race, ethnic group, or other minority group come to mind when you think of diversity? Does one of these groups pertain to you?
• Do you think the majority of people in our culture:

• • Respect cultural differences among groups of people.
  • Show indifference to cultural differences.
  • Lack respect for cultural differences. Explain each choice.

• If you were to make a suggestion about how our culture should handle diversity over the next decade, what would it be?

Compile your responses and write a brief reflection paper (two pages) on your findings. Specifically address the following issues:

• What did you discover was the general attitude toward diversity in our culture?
• Is diversity more associated with one race, ethnic, or other minority group than with others? If so, explain why this might be the case.
• Compare and contrast the respondent’s views with your own. How would you answer the same questions?
