Closed hands symbolising4/6/2023 The result has been a backlash from those in the cultural majority and rivalry for resources amongst minorities. The price tag for multiculturalism has been the ascent of rigid identity politics, where cultural groups proclaim either their “specialness” or “victimhood”, continually setting themselves apart from others. My experience of running a Los Angeles museum, dedicated to cultural understanding led me to question the wisdom of multiculturalism. How do we create common ground while promoting differences? Multicultural societies inherently consist of diverse religious and moral views. While the aims of such policies might have been enlightened, the application has been muddled. ![]() Its policies promote “cultural democracy”, the right of all groups to be represented in the cultural landscape of a diverse society. The goal was to move from mere tolerance to understanding and ultimately to unity.

What if ones favourite colour is Peacock blue but cant stand baby powder blue? and what if one loathes mustard yellow but doesnt mind canary yellow? What if one loves deep burgandy red, but cant abide by orange fire engine red? What if one loves the colour purple, but cannot wear it, so they have their bed linen in it?
