In the Cultural Identity unit, I understood what cultural diversity was and the terms salad bowl and melting pot. The most important idea I learned in this unit was the salad bowl. Salad bowl means people do not lose the unique aspects of their cultures even they moved into another city. I think salad bowl is a better term to describe the immigrants in the United States. Immigrants moved into the United States but they still keep their own culture. They accepted American culture but they still want to keep their own culture. That is why we could find China Town, little Italy or Korean Town in different cities in the United States.
