I recently saw an article in an Indian national English daily that "Obama winning his second Presidential term shows that United States of America is becoming an example of how diverse cultures can survive in harmony". And this article was written by an Indian.
I thought to myself "He's gotta be kidding me!" For the Westerners, America might be "diverse". But an Indian knows what diversity is. Here in our country, we have a new culture and language about every 100 meters.
And this guy says "USA is an example of cultures living in harmony"?
We, Indians, are all taught as kids that "Unity is in Diversity". We are united. Yeah sure, we have had a few haggles here and there. But can you imagine any other country with so many different cultures, languages, people and religions living in such peace?
Hell, the American's are all paranoid and shoot a couple of people from other countries every week. And this country is supposed to be the symbol of diversity just because they elected a black, no strike that, half black person as the President for the second time?
The guy who wrote the article should wake up and realise the greatness of his own country first. Stop trying to be a Westerner.
India is the example of how diverse culture can survive in harmony. It has been for a long time now. And will continue to be so.
