How To Learn Multicultural Manners

How can I learn multicultural manners?

If you're interested in learning more about other people customs and multicultural manners, step outside your box -- whatever that box may be, your regular routine. Say you read about the Nisei Festival in Little Tokyo. Go down there, go with open eyes and open hearts and see the kinds of things that are emphasized, you'll see the tofu area where they show all the different ways in which you can make tofu, or watch the flower arrangement section, or hear the taiko drums. Or if you're brave -- and I know this is really hard to do -- and that is to attend a house of worship ceremony. Most always, people who are of different religious faiths are so excited when someone visits their house of worship and they are happy to answer your questions.
