Multicultural Perspectives



Those resulting from “mixed” marriages?
According to the Current Population Survey 2008,
5,188,000 people in the US come from two or more
races… less than 2% of the population
Not very likely… just think about Hispanics… Mestizo is
at the core of many heritages from Latin America… plus
many probably do not declare multiple races
Is being multicultural equivalent to multiracial?
Multicultural Perspectives




One essential element that minorities in the United
States share is their experience of “being different.”
Not being from there or from here… “ni soy de aquí, ni
soy de allá”
The common experience of marginalization, and then
emergence, shapes unique characteristics of the cultures
that compose the multicultural marketplace
The non-Hispanic White segment, used to being the
“mainstream” is becoming marginalized and that creates a
defensive reaction

Methods

Online data collection

In 2007, sample sources were expanded from 2006 to include a segment of respondents that
would answer the questionnaire in Spanish.

The sample of those other cultural groups answering in English, respondents were originally
sampled via the Opinion Place online "river" methodology. This method has also been
referred to as "RDD for the web" as it uses broadcast promotional intercepts to generate a
flow of respondents to the Opinion Place site. Respondents are screened and assigned to
surveys in real-time, and are not considered registered panelists since most do not return to
the site for ongoing survey participation.
