Cultural Unity To Appreciate Diversity

By Mark Rogers


From the past until the present generation there are different cultures in coexisting with one another. The only difference is that now days they are widely accepted and they have equal rights to education and opportunity. When one would look at this present day society, one could say that humanity now is building a bridge to better understanding of the different and unique. There are cultural fair nm, that relays a message to a lot of people that diversity in culture should be accepted.

When one would reflect on the acts of the people in the past, who valued control and supremacy over life and equality. One could say that people have gone past those acts of cruelty and have now come to conclusion that above power and control life is priceless.

Because when you look back in those difficult moments in history, when people from different countries were judged to be inferior, some enslaved and mistreated. Those cruel times when different was viewed as a flaw and people were treated like animals that can easily be disposed.

When people made of the same flesh killed for the most pointless reasons, to gain supremacy and control, which is nothing in comparison to life and that was an idea that some people back then could not fully grasp. But gladly there more individuals that have opened their minds to that fact the life is something irreplaceable.

Now here is the time when all would celebrate, dance along as Mexicans share their passionate music and feel pity, remorse as African Americans share a cruel and bias history. These individuals regardless if they came from the north, south, east, or western part of the world they are being embraced by society accepted as what they are.

There is nothing to lose when one would accept that no two things can be the same. And with that being said, culture will always have its own unique identity. Regardless, if it is fully accepted or not it cannot be altered nor can it be reformed.

What is the difference in culture back then and now. That the then, could not accept diversity of culture. You ask yourself what it is, that made society so bias against other culture and other people from different parts of the world.

Why people act the way they did, to be able to treat a fellow human being as a slave, as a thing that can be replaced anytime. If you re read the course of history, you would be confused as to why people back then could be so cruel, exchanging a living breathing human being for money.

And students from other countries would wear their traditional clothing which makes it a very colourful and unique event. There are plenty of activities, that they share and enjoy and by the end of it, all would come up with the conclusion, that regardless if they come from different parts of the world, each and every one are made to be different yet the same.
