In the video “Classroom Demonstration: Diversity Profile Activity,” Dr. Talmadge Guy conducts an activity with his adult learners on their “earliest memories of difference.” Consider this question for yourself. In what type of environment did you grow up? Was it “diverse”? How do you know?
By Day 3:
Share the first time you can remember interacting with others who were different from you, or the first time you can remember being different from others. Use concepts from your text to analyze your early experiences, including the “range of reactions” Bucher describes on pages 14–18 and the “diversity myths” he describes on pages 24–25.
