The United States' journey toward equal rights for all (in terms of gender, race, religion, etc.) has long been a source of political and social discord. Some would argue that we have arrived, the playing field is now level, and we need to get over it. Others would argue we still have a long way to go, and we need to make amends for inequities of the past. The problem lie sin trying to find the proper middle ground. Most would agree a diverse working group is good for an organization. The disagreement lies in how far we go in attempting to foster this diversity. This study seeks to analyze the topic of diversity by using various case studies. Examples are provided of blatant discrimination, highlighting the need for diversity initiatives. The possibility of excessive focus on diversity is also explored, with accompanying examples. In the final analysis, there is no magic solution. Our focus must be in the areas of education and leadership. We must celebrate diversity, but not make that celebration a distraction, rather than an enhancement.
