Very odd for an American to be against multiculturalism as the US is the most multicultural nation! Perhaps he really means multireligional? Are the 5.2 million muslims in the US causing problems?

Perhaps you are confusing mulicuturalism with E pluribus unum and America's melting pot, they are very different.

The U S has always been Multi-Ethnic, or Multi-Racial, but they have basically adopted our culture, therefore we have not been multi-cultural in that sense. It is only recently, under the liberals push have the races and nationalities not adopted our culture. "Multi-Cultural Society" is an oxymoron if you go by the common definition of Society = "A group of humans broadly distinguished from other groups by mutual interests, participation in characteristic relationships, shared institutions, and a common culture."

Is the US "multicultural" or multiethnic? In any case, I would say that the "African-American culture" as really an American subculture, since we are talking about a mixed race whose culture owes very much to The Anglo-Celtic culture of the South and some even to the Native American cultures of that region.
