Describe an experience, event, or personal interaction from which you learned something new about another cultural or ethnic group.
Discuss how that experience affected or changed your viewpoint, using examples.
For example, did it increase your interest in that group? Did it increase your interest in social issues such as discrimination, prejudice, and stereotyping? Did it make you more cautious about or more open to other groups? Did it make you conscious of the language you use or a bias you might have?
Describe how you think the other person or people involved viewed the experience or encounter. Provide examples.
