  1. Equal, equal! The nature of Equality and Difference.

  2. As we are all unique individuals it is very easy to understand the nature of difference between persons.

  3. How do we differ physically? Physical Differences

  4. Biologically, each individual has a unique set of genetics characteristics. While mentally, we all encounter different experiences or different socialisation processes. For all that occupy our macro world, a different set of physical and social characteristics are held, which contribute to our individual identity.

  5. In cultural terms, variations include religious beliefs, ethnicity, language, traditions and rituals. Multiculturalism best describes societies that tolerate, respect and celebrate cultural diversity.

  6. Hybrid in simple terms means a mixture or a combination, therefore, hybrid societies are those that have evolved into mixes of people of different ethnicity, religion, disability or sexuality.

  7. How is Australia a hybrid society?

  8. News report • http://www.smh.com.au/national/look-to-nsw-for-multicultural-utopia-hatzistergos-tells-federal-inquiry-20110404-1cyml.html ‘Look to NSW for multicultural utopia, Hatzistergo tells federal inquiry’ Kirsty Needham – April 5, 2011. The Sydney Morning herald.

  10. Historically, societies have been relatively homogenous or similar, tolerating very little difference or deviations from the norm. However, today, as a result of globalisation, many nations around the world can be identified as either hybrid, multicultural or both.

  11. Class survey • Survey class members to find out their ancestry. • Record your results in a table. • What do the results tell you?

  12. Extension activity • Access the Australian Bureau of Statistics website and find out the number of Australian residents who state their ancestry as Australian and/or other. Use the latest census to do this.
