List and explain examples of diversity in the United States.

There are many ways in which the population of the United
States is quite diverse.  Here are some
examples:


  • Racial diversity.  There are, of
    course, Americans who come from all racial backgrounds.  In addition, there are many
    Americans who are of mixed racial heritage.

  • Ethnic
    diversity.  Within the various races, there are many different ethnicities.  For
    example, there are "black" people who are from the Dominican Republic and there are
    "black" people who have recently come from Africa.  These different people will have
    very different cultures and ethnicities.

  • Rural and urban
    diversity.  Americans can differ from one another a great deal depending on where they
    live.  Values and political opinions tend to differ between rural and urban
    areas.

  • Religious diversity.  America has a broad array of
    religions as well as a number of people who believe in no religion.

All of these are examples of ways in which the
US is a diverse society.
