Cultural diversity must be broadly defined, not limited to the traditionally defined minority groups. Along with the traditional definition of cultural diversity, the definition should also include groups of people who have different lifestyles from the dominant population due to religion, employment status, sexual orientation and so forth (Princeton, 196). The list is endless of the different cultures found within the boundaries of the United States and nearly just as long within Minnesota. The country was founded as a melting pot of cultures and within recent years the diversity within Minnesota is on the rise. For the purposes of this module, we will confine our comments to cultures as defined by race, keeping in mind that many other cultures exist and many of the same principles can be applied to cultures not mentioned here. |
