How do you define “cultural diversity”? Do you think the way you define cultural diversity is the same or different than how others might define it? What elements contribute to a person’s “cultural identity”? What if everyone in the world had the same cultural identity? Do you think this would be a place you’d want to live? Why are discussions about cultural identity important?

Share with us some of your personal and cultural identities. Please share 6 aspects of yourself with the group. Here are some identity categories, for example:

Cultural Heritage(s)
Nationality(-ies)
Family
Race/Ethnicity
Religion/Religious influences
Sexual Identity
Disability Status
Language Community(-ies)
Character trait(s)
Do any of these identities relate to one another, if so, how? What would a person who read about your identity be able to reveal about you? What would a person who read about your identity not be able to tell about you? Do any of your cultural identity groups practice allyship? If they do not practice allyship, how might they engage in activities to be more inclusive and equitable?
