    Personal Narrative: I Am Diversity

    To many in America, I am diversity. I represent a minority group, I am the exotic elephant in the room, and I am who companies include to up their diversity intake. My culture is the outline for my entire life; while it doesn't define me, it has changed and impacted my life is different ways. Diversity is the basis of all communities, and tolerance is a result of educating oneself on this topic. A group may be diverse in nature, but if not tolerant, they are not succeeding in being diverse in action. My life as an Indian-American student in a upper-middle class neighborhood may not seem to give much insight on diversity, but my experience has not been stereotypical. From an early age, my parents surrounded our family with Indians. It was not…

    Diversity In My Family

    Diversity is defined by the Oxford English Dictionary as “the state of being diverse” and “a range of different things”. To say that my family is diverse is an understatement. Not only do I have fourteen siblings, many of my siblings come from different countries, continents, cultures, and races. Because my family is large and multicultural, I have been exposed from a young age to the importance of diversity. Due to my early and prolonged exposure to diversity, I am no stranger to change and embrace it like an old, long lost friend.…

    Essay On Diversity In America

    Coming to America from my native born country of Afghanistan was definitely a change to get a grasp of. Growing up here, diversity is very common. I believe United States is definitely a melting pot. We have people from all over the world settle here to create a better life. Growing up in the city of Saint Louis, I would say that diversity was a very common thing. I lived in a street where their were elderly American folks, African -Americans, Mexicans, and Bosnians. I was exposed to a diverse group of people at an early age. Low income communities such as the ones I have lived in tends to be the most diverse as oppose to living in Ladue where their the superior white race is the most common.

So when it came to helping accommodate for disabilities I would naturally think of things like wheelchair ramps or special seating in the offices. I never considered the fact that “invisible” disabilities were present in the workplace. Now when you say disability I think of not only the physical but also the mental and learning disabilities that can affect people within the workplace.…
