If
I could make one important change in the school that
I attended I would require all students to take classes
that teach them about other cultures of the world.
In America we are taught too little about other cultures,
and it makes us very egocentric. Americans tend to
think that their cultural norms are right and everyone
else's are wrong. This needs to change. I think teaching
America's youth about other cultures would be an important
first step in righting that wrong.(83 words)
