Provides a brief discussion of the different challenges faced today compared to the founding of our country in terms of diversity. Appropriate for classroom use, middle school students and above.
Our nation isn't "tremendously diverse," it has diversity.
According to Wiki, the USA is roughly 80% White, 15% Hispanic, 13% Black, 4% Asian. The remainder make up 3% of the population. I think it's been that way for a very long time, since the oldest surnames are the same European origins. The only difference is the rise in Central & South American Hispanics. Spanish names are European.
