In your view, is the growing variety of ethnic and racial groups in the U.S. very good, good, bad or very bad for the country? Generally speaking, do you think race relations in the United States is excellent ?

let's discuss !

Bad. Racism and classism is still very prevalent in our society.

I think it's bad in a way.  People who come to America make an area like they still are in their native land.  So it's like bringing their country here.  Why did they move then if they want to have things like that other country.

Diversity is good but don't make a town like another country.

It's good and bad. It's good that people are finding their culture important to keep, especially since it's a known issue that the American identity is disappearing. What is bad is when these groups try to stay separate and isolate themselves. My friend works at a hotel and she said that they offer free ESL to the immigrant workers but they refuse it.

I want to say "excellent" for the fact that there is more diversity and acceptance than in the past. However, I want to say "I dont care", because it doesnt matter to me how many "ethnic people" we have; I care how many good people we have, which doesnt depend on whether you're a minority or not.

Classism will die when capitalism dies or is killed.

Then the representation of America as the Great Melting pot of different cultures and peoples would be fake and a lie.

I personally think it is an excellent thing, as a stagnat culture is a bad culture.

What exactly is "American Identity"?
