Multiculturalism

Definitions according dictionary The idea that we can live alongside people from other cultures and accept them as they are, as opposed to excluding minorities or forcing them to assimilate into clones of us. Currently, it seems to have replaced the antiquated idea of the melting pot. It leads to more knowledge of and respect for other languages and cultures. Multiculturalism is a marxist ideology designed to ethnically cleanse European derived peoples by promoting the massive 3rd world invasion of Europe, United States, Canada, and Australia.

History First appear of multiculturalism in late antique, caused big increasing number of immigrants of different cultures and languages Separating cities to quarters Partly led to creation of latin (simplyfied greek first) Language barriers were from a big part removed by urbanization and massmedia influence

Current situation The word ,,multiculturalism´´ came from Switzerland as an expression for a nation which is culturaly diversed but politically unified (1957) Political ideology comes from 1960´s in Canada (uniting franco and anglo- phonic population) In Europe is multiculturalism from a big part caused by migration of inhabitants of former colonies to their ,,mother countries´´

The melting pot Political strategy and an official attitude of USA to immigrants meaning that cultures are metaphorically mixed together while getting the image of American culture (kind of compromise) Strategy that failed – minorities in some countries do not assimilate (ghettos, their own language, TV stations - CULTURE) USA still consider the ,,melting pot´´ to be their official attitude to multiculturalism

Basic requirement to the multicultural society is respect and tolerance to the cultural and language diversity from all sides
