How and why is diversity the foundational and functional basis for American democracy?
The National Diversity Education Program is designed to bring to a broad spectrum of students and teachers in America a new approach to diversity education! After engaging educators from across the nation in researching best practices in diversity education, and in surveying and testing methodologies in communities throughout the country, the Japanese American National Museum recommends a simple, highly accessible approach for teaching and exploring the complexities of diversity: DIVERSITY ↔ DEMOCRACY At the core of this approach is the principle that diversity and democracy are integrally related to each other. One cannot be adequately discussed or taught without the other.
