More and more our world, our cities, our communities are becoming more and more diverse. Kicking off this month, Black History Month, and wrapping up with Hispanic Heritage Month from September 15 – October 15, digital cable platforms, like On Demand, are featuring special programming that celebrates the diverse cultures around us with Diversity on Demand, a new initiative to support multi-culturalism.
“The cable industry recognizes its responsibility and privilege to use the reach, power and influence of television, Internet and mobile apps to spotlight important issues,” said Char Beales, president and CEO, Cable & Telecommunications Association for Marketing (CTAM).
To kick-off Diversity On Demand, cable channels are celebrating Black History Month, providing digital cable customers access to shows about African American history, food, and more. Several biographies on “famous” figures, such as Bill Cosby, Thurgood Marshall, and others will also be available on Video On Demand through mid-March. You can find Diversity on Demand programming on many of your favorite cable channels, including Discovery, HBO, and NBC.
Make sure you visit the Diversity on Demand Facebook Page for more show and programming details, and participating channels. You’ll also find more activities, links to trailers, contests, and ways to interact with other Diversity on Demands fans.

I think Diversity Awareness plays a very important part in educating the public on how to live in harmony in this melting pot world of ours! Thank You for a chance to win! 🙂
I think diversity is wonderful because it opens up the world and broadens your horizons!
I think diversity awareness is super important because every culture has had their share of struggles and innovations that are important to everyone! 🙂
we are all on the same planet together.
I was raised in a household (Christian) where diversity was not only shunned, when I tried to have friends of other cultures, it presented problems. I had to keep those friendships “secret”. I had ugly things said to me by my parents because of my friendships with people of different cultures. No one should do that to their children and I do my best to make sure my boys understand and respect diversity.

Diversity is always good so we can learn to be accepting of everyone’s differences.
Diversity is good b/c it keeps the world interesting.
The only way I could explain diversity to my little guy was telling him it is like a rainbow. You need all the colors to make it beautiful and right. It just wouldn’t be a rainbow if it was only one color.
I think diversity is good because variety is the spice of life!
Diversity is good because it allows people to learn to live with people different than yourself in so many different ways and still be friends.

It’s a way to learn more about other people. I believe that learning about other people’s cultures and beliefs helps a person make better choices for themselves – ignorance is not bliss.
I think it is good because it helps to broaden everyone’s mind and spirit.
Diversity opens your eyes to different perspectives and view points of life.

Diversity is good and very important in so many ways. One way is that we learn so much and opens our eyes to see things in different ways
Diversity is far more interesting than conformity.
Diversity is great! Can you imagine a world where everyone is the same? Boring! No thank you!
Broadens your horizons, let’s us see things in different ways.
I think that it helps everyone to experience different things which makes a person grow.
Diversity is good because it gives us perspective and helps us realize not everyone is exactly like we are.
Diversity is important because we all have to live together on a planet called earth peopled with over 6 billion beings of different races, creeds, religions, cultures, languages and traditions/customs!
Diversity is the right thing to do…its opens new ways
Diversity is important because everyone is a human being, regardless of skin color, race, religion, sex, or sexual orientation, and they deserve to be treated like one.
Diversity is good because God made beauty in all shapes, sizes and colors for all of us to appreciate. He is the Master Artist!
I think diversity is wonderful because it opens up the world

We are all unique, and we should all appreciate each other for our individuality. How boring would life be if we were all alike?
I think diversity is a wonderful thing that allows all groups of people to get to know each other and live together in harmony.

average is boring
Diversity is good because I feel like we need that in our lives and it is for me all about being open minded about anything. We should try to open our minds to all the various cultures not only here in the US but all around the world.

If everything was the same the world would be incredibly boring.
Diversity is important because we can all learn so much from each other’s different cultures and lifestyles if we are open to one another
Diversity is good because god created us all the way we are. Everyone is unique and special.
Diversity is uber important because we can gain so much knowledge from the different cultures we interact with and who doesnt want to learn?
Diversity is good because our children (in particular) need to be exposed to as much cultural experiences & varieties as possible if we hope to create a harmonious & EDUCATED society. It will take some time, but we can live in a world that respects each other’s differences!
I think diversity is important because it shows the many facets of humanity that help us realize just how alike we really are.
Diversity empowers our humanity.

Yes I thank Diversity is a good thing. Because we’d never learn anything different if it weren’t for it which would make life very boring.

Diversity keeps life interesting!
Diversity is good so everything is not the same
Diversity allows for tolerance and understanding of others who are different from one another be it due to race, religion, or beliefs.
diversity embraces the concept of differences and change. It’s a great thing to constantly learn from so many different people.
It would be pretty boring if everyone was the same…give everyone the opportunity to be their own person and make their own path in life
Diversity is so important because awareness is the first step to acceptance. I think that it’s important for people to realize that diversity has multiple levels, not just race: religion, sexual orientation, economic status, etc. Coexistence is what we should aim for. There will always be differences in opinion, but we need to respect each other no matter what!
