Do you think being bi-racial is a good topic for the diversity essay? Half white/Japanese but I grew up in a rather Caucasian area (Alabama).
C'mon you've gotta have something better than this.Half white/Japanese but I grew up in a rather Caucasian area (Alabama).
I'm multi-racial, multi cultural, and have parents of different religions. I used this for diversity, as you do have a lot of relatives with different values to respect and can see things from multiple points of view. Asian cultures/religions are much different from WASP. Good luck to you.Do you think being bi-racial is a good topic for the diversity essay? Half white/Japanese but I grew up in a rather Caucasian area (Alabama).
I did it. Unless you have something better, play the hand you are dealt. Biracial is less than 10% of the population. It is different than being in one racial/ethnic/religious group.I was going to talk about being biracial and cultural competency. Do you guys think that's okay? Or should I work another angle?
Again, this really depends upon whether or not your being biracial has had a significant impact on your life and experiences. If you just say: "I'm biracial so I am able to understand the lives of people of multiple races," but you are unable to explain how being biracial has affected your life experiences in any way, this is a poor essay topic. If you have had experiences that most people have not had because your are biracial (i.e. you could tell people stories if they asked, not just give a vague, "I have the experience of being two races, and most people don't have that.") then this could be a good topic.I was going to talk about being biracial and cultural competency.

Perfectly fine, but really, common material.
What makes you cool? That's what they're looking for, not your ethnic mix.
