America is described as the melting pot because of the vast diversity of cultures in races in America. America is the most diverse of all the nations and therefore there are more cultures here than in the other nations. My family is part of this “melting pot” because we are a part of the variety of races. I know that I am part Indian, not very much, but it is still a part of my culture and heritage. The Indians were here before the English and French and everyone started immigrating to America, so my ancestors were most likely living here before America was taken over. There are so many things that make up the diversity in America, the many races being just one of them. I think that the varieties of cultures that make up this “melting pot” are a big part of what the definition of America really is. I’m proud to be able to be a part of this nation and I am glad that here in America we are able to put our cultural differences aside and peacefully coexist with everyone. It’s nice to be able to have access to knowledge of other cultures too because I think that it’s really cool to learn about the other ways that people live their lives.
