Plants and Diversity

First off: planting. last monday we all got together around ten in laurel and planted. We all devided into groups of five (or tried too) and together put dirt into our painted pots, then we put some seeds into the dirt. I have been watering mine on a decent schedule so as to not flood it. But alas there is no plant yet of course.

In our last class we also talked about diversity. There were several reading about diversity which gave light to some different sides of diversity. One question came up: is diversity a good thing. I believe that the fact that there is even a concept of diversity is what causes all the different racial problems and the like. What I mean is why can't we just be different people together? Why do we have to be diverse? Diversity is a good thing. But how long are we going to be diverse before the diversity is the norm and the idea of diversity dies away? We are all human and that should be enough.
