Intercultural Communication
"The challenge facing us today is clear: to learn to accept cultural, and therefore communication, differences. Those of us who insist on clinging to the notion of a 'homogeneous melting pot,' who refuse to take cultural diversity into account, will simply not be able to meet the communication needs of our society and our world. Most likely, we will not only fail to share meaning with others, but we will not understand why we fail. When we view the world myopically, we distort our ability to respond appropriately." (Gamble & Gamble, Communication Works, p. 33)
