Diversity and Multiculturalism In Today’s Society

What should have been topics long ago off the table are more important than ever.  Front and center in our current presidential campaign are diversity and multicultural issues. In our corporate boardrooms: diversity and multicultural issues.  In our classrooms and teacher lounges: diversity and multicultural issues. In our work cubicles, office spaces, field sites, labs, departmental divisions, police stations and executive suites: diversity and multiculturalism.  They are the topics that thread us together for better or worse, richer or poorer, in sickness and in health. 

Diversity and multiculturalism are who we are and how we connect.  We just need to find better opportunities to bridge the gap between enhancing our educational awareness of each other to yield better and more effective cooperative collaborations.  

We’ll explore these twin topics during today’s program in our conversation with educator and community advocate Nancy Thompson.  She’ll talk about an upcoming Community/Police Forum that will cover everything from racial profiling to drugs in our street.

Then I will walk you about three new events my company is  producing to help drive the conversations forward: The November 3rd Multicultural Conference and our upcoming public trips to India and Cuba.

Topics that should pique your interest.  Topics that should expand your thoughts and actions in relevant and amazing new ways.
