I took my son to various cultural nights at our local university. Indiana State University has African Global Night, Saudi Global Night, Indian Global Night, Chinese New Year, Hispanic Global Night, etc. These usually bring speakers and performers that are famous in their home country to share their lives with us.

Of course, lessons of different cultures help. However, I think, if you can, getting to know families of different cultures helps a lot. It's more of a feeling that, " hey you do different things, but you aren't that different from me." For me, I don't want my kids to feel that people from different cultures are foreign and strange. I am not from this culture. I am proud of my background and culture, but I am also not a museum exhibit. KWIM?
