Using ethnicity as identity

Description

Using ethnicity as identity involves actively affirming and promoting ethnic heritage to foster group cohesion, cultural pride, and social solidarity. This strategy addresses issues of marginalization, discrimination, and cultural erosion by empowering communities to assert their distinctiveness, advocate for rights, and preserve traditions. Practical actions include organizing cultural events, education initiatives, and advocacy campaigns, thereby strengthening resilience, representation, and mutual understanding within multicultural societies.This information has been generated by artificial intelligence.
