As the 21st century opens the United States along with nations around the world struggle to deal with a planet that has been become a global village. The challenges are both inter-cultural and intra-cultural. And for nations like the U.S. continued immigration from around the world constantly brings new ethnic/racial cultural challenges to an already diverse society. Dealing with Diversity introduces viewers to people from many diverse populations in an effort to help students understand the different constraints and motivations of people from backgrounds different from their own.
