Alcorn State University Experience with Different Ethnic Backgrounds Paper This paper should be written in APA format.
4-5 pages not including the title page.
Below I have attached all the instructions from my instructor and also I have attached a sheet with the questions from my interview. The Diverse Experience of Culturally Diverse People: An Investigation Project Interview a person from any of the following groups that’s not of your own: African Americans, Asian Americans, Hispanic Americans, or Native Americans. (Example of interview is included at the end of this syllabus). Whatever you choose, you must engage with others during the experiences, observe without gawking, be open to the experiences, share at least some of yourselfif at all possibleand be aware of how you feel being different from the others you are with. Do not be an embarrassment to yourself or insensitive to others. This growth should not impede or be burdensome to others. It also should not be overwhelmingly fearful or disastrously uncomfortable for you. Yet you must be willing to go outside of your comfort zone. If there is any doubt about whether your learning experiences will meet the required criteria, check with me BEFOREHAND. Some experiences will not meet the requirements for these assignments. An example of an experience that would NOT be acceptable would be going to a Christian Church of a different denomination if you are Christian.
