SKEEphistAKAte, this is an incredibly important distinction. I am always considering what multiculturalism is and what it should be for my sorority. I've never considered it to be running through the daisies licking lollipops. It's an action of understanding.

But, the standing definition (as it appears to me) is that set forth by...the majority...and it is a melting pot. The mission is to quiet everyone down and live in some sort of feigned tolerance in which no one is truly satisfied but the majority. It is also to squelch discussion such as the one in this thread.

I'm in full agreement with you. Change is needed, not this "can't we all get along" nonsense. But if adequate change ever does take place, perhaps we WILL "get along," although same-mindedness will never be requisite.
