"The importance of intercultural awareness and communication has also becomes very important for internal management of organizations. We find that frequently large organizations across the world tend to employ people from many different cultures. This is quite well known for companies having different business units across the globe, and transferring employees across the globe to different countries. But this problem has also become also very important to organizations operating within confines of a single country. Thus we find that now US population consists of many different ethnic groups such as earliest American settlers, African Americans, Puerto Ricans, and so on."

Being aware of another cultures religion and their holidays is very important. When you know these things about them it helps you get along with them better and create a relationship with them. Cultural awareness becomes central when we have to interact with people from other cultures. People see, interpret and evaluate things in a different ways. What is considered an appropriate behavior in one culture is frequently inappropriate in another one. Misunderstandings arise when I use my meanings to make sense of your reality.

Having friends with people from a different race than you, it a great thing. Not only are you learning to get along with different cultures, you are also learning different things about them and where they are from. "If a person comes from a different culture than you, they grew up understanding the world, its social norms, food, religion, language and numerous other everyday activities from both similar and different perspectives. While being in contact with people from different cultures can cause misunderstandings and conflict, it can also lead to increased opportunities for learning and new experiences. "

Creating a relationship with different cultures can get you a long way in life and I believe that having this relationship is very important. "Relationships are powerful. Our one-to-one connections with each other are the foundation for change. And building relationships with people from different cultures, often many different cultures, is key in building diverse communities that are powerful enough to achieve significant goals. "

" Everything we do regarding time, personal space, body language, voice volume, small talk, and so on is shaped by our culture. Most of the participants in my workshops named eye contact as the most important feature in communication. Yet people from many cultures, including some Asians, Native Americans, Africans, and Hispanics/Latinos, don't make eye contact like Caucasian Americans do in some cultures, in fact, making eye contact is considered an insult. You can learn a lot about other cultures from your coworkers. Organize an after-school gathering for teachers and other school staff to bring in a favorite dish from their culture and to share cultural characteristics. "

The thing that stood out to me the most here, is the word respect. Everyone should have respect for different cultures online. Having respect can get you a long ways in life. "The best way I would believe would be open communication, respect for others beliefs, ethnicity, privacy, and the rights of an individual in general. An action of one person can make a negative or positive impact on society as a whole. If someone chooses to belittle another for something as serious as their beliefs or as trivial as the way they dress, they set in motion negative responses which will inevitably affect many others"

Cultural literacy is important because you need to know the importance of getting along with different cultures. Anyone can join social networks, so you need to learn how you can get along with everyone. "Cultural literacy is familiarity with and ability to understand the idioms, allusions, and informal content that create and constitute a dominant culture. From being familiar with street signs to knowing historical references to understanding the most recent slang, literacy demands interaction with the culture and reflection of it. Knowledge of a canonical set of literature is not sufficient in and of itself when engaging with others in a society, as life is interwoven with art, expression, history, and experience. Cultural literacy requires familiarity with a broad range of general knowledge and implies the use of that knowledge in the creation of a communal language and collective knowledge. Cultural literacy stresses the knowledge of those pieces of information that content creators will assume the audience already possesses."

Getting along with different cultures online is very important. Even though you will have conflicts, you should still try to over come the conflicts to be able to have a friendly relationship with these different people. "An important part of life is being able to get along with each other. But conflicts and misunderstandings, unfortunately, do happen. While resolving disagreement and discord can be difficult for even those of us who share a common nation, language or culture, doing so between people who don't share such commonalities can be even harder."
