For some strange reason our society likes to avoid the topic of diversity or race until something major happens. Something major like the interracial family on the Cheerios commercial or Paula Deen and her ‘alleged’ use of the ‘N word.’ Prejudice of any sort is disheartening, ranging from sexual orientation to political views. I am sure that I am not the only person in the world who feels as though there are bigger problems than what you and I like or dislike.
I can’t help but ask; does it REALLY matter what the next person is doing? Are THEIR personal preferences going to hurt my chances of success? Every time an issue occurs, I always ask myself this. The people who are having the most problems with whatever issues that are apparent, should probably ask themselves questions like this as well. I don’t see how gay marriage will negatively affect anyone or heterosexual marriage. I don’t see how people get angry with immigrants for coming to America to do jobs that my fellow Americans feel they are too good to do.
We live in a diverse world and that should be represented but that is just my personal opinion.
We want more diversity!
