Get Involved: Diversity

CRF interns analyze issues that arise from living and working in a multicultural society. Interns learn about past issues of equality and liberty through landmark Supreme Court cases. Interns also act out scenarios of hypothetical situations that examine civil rights laws. Reflection Questions: 1. What are some experiences you have had with other cultures? Have they been positive or negative? 2. How does multiculturalism make Los Angeles as a place to live?
