The Failure of Multiculturalism - Paperback

by Simon Lennon (Author)

Whether we like racial diversity or meekly accept it, the West's overarching objective is trying to make it work. We've made race relevant whenever it promotes multiculturalism, but irrelevant whenever it doesn't.Still, the West's attempt to create multiracial societies has failed. Multiculturalism depends upon individualism: people not siding with someone of their race or religion feeling hurt or aggrieved. Only white people buy into it.Conversely, many of the problems with racial diversity are those with individualism: the lack of fellow feeling. Those problems aren't resolved by being ignored.
