Perspectives on Culture & Diversity

I talked to three of my family members and they stated that the definition of culture and definition is that diversity means  an area of people of different decent, different characters, outlooks on life, upbringing, and people that come from all walks of life. Culture is also seen as the way you were raised, traditions passed on through generations. Diversity is seen as racial equality, gender equality, and equal opportunity. Equal representation, gender, racial, socioeconomic status, and ect are considered in diversity. 

From what I learned this week and my family's opinions on culture and diversity is that it is important to respect people's culture as well as the diversity in the world. People can't look at others and just judge them based on how they look and the stereotype that they are exposed to it. It is rude to assume that everyone is the same if they are the same race as someone else. That particular person has their own personal culture that makes them who they are through that culture. Just because someone looks Hispanic does not mean that they are from Mexico, they could be from Guatemala or Cuba. No matter where someone comes from they should have the opportunity to make happen of what they want to achieve in life.
