American society is enormously diverse and complex and cannot be
reduced only to a few stories or stereotypes.
Important differences exist between geographical regions, between
rural and urban areas, and between social classes.
In addition, the presence of millions of immigrants who came to the
United States from all corners of the world with their own culture
and values adds even more variety and flavor to American life. |
