Question

Layla wants to promote diversity and inclusion. Which friend gives her advice that will help her do
this?
Carmen, who tells her to ask foreign students about their culture
Devonte, who says it is okay to ignore foreign students because they do not understand
English anyway
Liz, who says she should never discuss religious or cultural belief differences among
people
Landon, who tells her it is okay to laugh at racist jokes because they are not serious

Answer 1

Carmen. Asking foreign students about their culture (respectfully and with genuine curiosity) helps build understanding and inclusion.

Tips: ask open-ended questions, listen without making assumptions or turning someone into a spokesperson for their whole group, respect boundaries if they don’t want to share, and avoid tokenizing or exoticizing their experiences.
