Abstract: Abstract Langston Hughes (1938), in his great poem “Let America Be America Again,” suggests that we, the people, must redeem our nation together. However, when certain citizens are, or perceive themselves to be, excluded, marginalizedmarginalized , ignored, and prevented from achieving their full potential, a nation and, subsequently, its organizations suffer. When did the need to redeem our nation begin? Why is there such controversy when the word “diversity” is mentioned in American society and/or the workplace?
