Teach Different with JFK: Diversity
“If we cannot now end our differences, at least we can help make the world safe for diversity.” John F. Kennedy
(1) Claim: President Kennedy points out that it’s not our responsibility to win an argument. It’s our responsibility to make sure that everyone’s voice can always be heard.
(2) Counterclaim: But what about the arguments that are best and most convincing? Sometimes the right path is only known to a few and the fewer the voices the better.
(3) Essential Question: When does diversity of opinion become a hindrance?
