I do not want to come off negative but your daughter needs to learn to think fast. Turn the question around - what do you mean by diverse? Do you mean gender? Do you mean skin color? Do you mean nationality? Get the interviewer to define the terms and then answer the question from.

That’s what I’d been thinking. She ceded to the interviewer’s parochial view. They both had narrow horizons.

Turn the question around - what do you mean by diverse?

Interviewer's thought process: "What do I mean by diverse??? What you think I mean, Cracker? Were you teachin' any bruthas? That's what I wanna know. Stupid Cracker mofo. No way I'm hirin' yo sorry ass."

Interviewers response: "Well, at our school, our students tend to come from disadvantaged backgrounds. I was wondering if you had experience dealing with some of the problems that can arise due to poverty?"

I would rather have seen her answer along the lines of, “of course I have, in fact every student I have ever worked with is his own unique personality and learning style. As a result, I have had to learn to teach to every single unique individual, to take into account his learning capability and style.”

Take the opportunity to define Diversity for the interviewer and leave race out of it.

When and if the majority of people who follow the Constitution will start taking the confident lead only then only then will the Constitution be protected.

And God bless MLK.
