A June 2004 article in Altermedia Scotland states: “America as a nation is now dominated by an alien system of beliefs, attitudes, and values that has become known as ‘political correctness’ It seeks to impose a uniformity in thought and behavior among all Americans and is therefore totalitarian in nature.” Do you agree that political correctness imposes “a uniformity of thought and behavior”? Come up with examples of political correctness to illustrate your answer. Discuss what role, if any, political correctness might play in increasing respect for diversity and enhancing the democratic process.
