Cultural and Diversity

Three people that I chose to ask about culture and diversity is my supervisor, my husband and a co-worker.  My supervisor is a Native American.  My husband is African-American.  My co-worker is Caucasian. 

My supervisor stated that culture is a person ethnic group and where they come from.  She stated that culture can break down by the ethnic group’s language, food they eat, clothing, dancing and religion.  She stated that diversity is the different cultures in a population. 

My husband thought I was given him a challenge question.  I had to let him know that there was no right or wrong answered.  He stated that culture is his family background and his belief.  He stated that culture plays a major factor in family traditions and rituals.  He stated that diversity is like the melting pot.  He stated that the melting pot was a bunch of ingredients’ mixed in a pot.  He stated that the world is has different kind of people and that we all are different and that we share the same world. 

My co-worker stated that culture to her is her family tree and her religion.  She stated that her culture is her ancestors and family traditions.  She stated that diversity is all the cultures in the world.  She stated that every culture is different which makes the world to be a diverse place. 

I did not have a hard time getting the three people that I chose to answer the question.  I think that they were all correct and describe culture and diversity in a similar way.
