How can multicultural education affect broader social issues that impact our society?

The hope is that multicultural education will eliminate prejudice, stereotypes, crime & poverty rates, achievement gaps. The more we know about others culture and background the more understanding we can be of why people do the things they do. Watching the video “Shadow of Hate “made it very clear to me that every type or group of people have been discriminated against at one point in time. It does not matter what your skin color is. It is human nature to be scared of the unknown and that is why there is prejudice and stereotypes. That’s why informing yourself is the best defense against becoming prejudice.
