Watch "TEDTalks on You Tube: My Road Trip through The Whitest Towns in America."
Reflect on the following in questions:
- According to the speaker, what factors led to the development of the whitopias he describes? What "pushed" and what "pulled" this development? How are the factors involved in the push-pull reinforced by our culture? By mass media? With this in mind, why is deepening our understanding of diversity important? How is it a component of developing better communication with each other?
