Technology Revolution: The Future of Now
The buzz: “We become not a melting pot but a beautiful mosaic. Different people, different beliefs, different yearnings, different hopes, different dreams.”
-U.S. President Jimmy Carter
But Canadian social psychologist John Berry observes that multiculturalism is dependent on both the “cultural maintenance” by immigrant groups and “cultural acceptance” by host societies. Strong cultural maintenance by immigrants and weak cultural acceptance by a host society lead to separation and marginalization. Conversely, weak cultural maintenance by immigrants leads to assimilation into the host society culture. (psychologytoday.com)
Today, through media globalization and cross-border connectivity, technology is playing an integral role in balancing cultural preservation with fluid cultural exchange. And this all creates a real time multicultural experience.

The 2018 BBC Studios Americas Diversity & Inclusion Summit
Untold Stories: Diversity and Inclusion in Media
“There is no greater agony than bearing an untold story inside you.”
– Maya Angelou
Stories hold power. “Those who tell the stories rule the world,” says a Native American proverb. A picture is worth a thousand words, but science tells us video is worth 1.8 million. Television (and all motion pictures) are the most powerful form of storytelling, so the work done by the TV industry profoundly matters. If society wants to create a more inclusive world, it’s crucial to change the narrative.
In this 45 min lecture based upon a New York University undergraduate class he created, Court Stroud walks the audience through TV milestones for historically-marginalized groups. He uses examples from Europe, Latin America and North America to show why it’s crucial to have racial diversity in front of and behind the camera.
