So you're Indigenous Native American? Those are the only true natives in the United States.

A woman, born in Iran, and living in another country for 2 decades told me that immigration is not a melting pot, it is a mosaic. It took me a while to figure out what she was saying ... I now understand that to mean that the idea is to retain one's own culture regardless of which country one lives. The melting pot is moving to a new country and melting into the culture, the mosaic is transplanting one's culture to a new country.

We are all tribal. Why do we fight it? Multiculturalism is a complete failure.

I thought we were all out of Africa - so why do Indians have a better claim on the US than Europeans? They don't, of course.

How in the h... do you determine that multi-culturalism has failed?
Are we all supposed to be like robots and think the same way?
Is that what you call a successful society?

Because he has been told that is a righteous aimed for goal. Mean while anyone not blind sees cultural conflict. If you look at larger cities you will notice they are mostly cultural divided to avoid conflict.

Probably because they settled this land first? Do you read the things you write or do you just spit out whatever inane thoughts happen to be floating in your head?

Lol ... go ahead and tell us how many cultures you find in those cities that have "conflict"
BTW, culture is not the same than ethnic group or religion

Really?

Both my parents were born in the U.S.; as their parents before them. What country other than the U.S. am I a native of?
