Beyond Paula Deen: Why Multiculturalism Has Failed Us and Why We Need an Intercultural Dialogue

We're getting great private feedback on our joint interview for Huffington Post. Samuel Autman and I take on the term multiculturalism and I discuss the importance of reading to increase empathy. So glad we haven't faced any flaming comments yet!

I really believe we need to get children reading again, and reading books that will open their minds. Some school systems are doing this, but parents need to take up the slack and get their kids off the screens and into a book. Though ereaders are great ways to encourage them, too! I know more boys are reading because of them.

Jieun Kim I am glad you talk about the intercultural dialogue of the article that I've just read and enjoyed linking your book, The Chalk Circle: Intercultural Prizewinning Essays and your joint interview

Tara Good to get this comment, Jieun. I see the flaming comments have started, though I am not reading them. This is why Samuel and I wrote this piece, to connect with people like yourself. I am so glad it resonated with you!
