Integration without Denial
The Guardian makes a solid point about France (Salon syndication of the story, I can’t seem to find it at the Guardian’s site): the French principle of integration through denial of cultural/racial differences is a catastrophe.
I’ve always been impressed with the level of cultural and racial integration in the US. America sees variety as a strength to cultivate, where France sees it as an anomaly to rectify. Sure, the American approach to integration isn’t perfect nor accepted by all. Yet its results seem vastly superior.
