Asad's first grade class is diverse: there are two students from Korea, five students from South America, two students from the
United States, three students from Kuwait, a student from Mexico, two students from England, and five students from western Europe. The teacher and students celebrate the diversity within their class, and allow the students to share their culture's practices with others. Asad's class is:___________ a) segregated
b) pluralistic
c) assimilated
d) profiled
Pluralistic refers to a society, for example, in which <em>various groups with different beliefs</em> or ideas coexist without having to be assimilated and all the same. In this case, <em>everyone can keep their own traditions</em> and coexist with the others.
Asad's class is pluralistic because almost every student comes from a different background but no one is forcing them to become one same group with the same traditions and customs. Instead, they all celebrate the class' diversity and share their culture practices with others.
One of the greatest philosphers of the 20th century was Ayn Rand. She spent her life making people uncomfortable. Rand, who wrote "The Fountainhead," and "Atlas Shrugged," was almost completly responsible for the Objectivist theory.
