以多元化自豪：第九区的众多声音
地方性遗产
您能举出几个能够代表您所在社区的种族团体名称呢？假如您的社区就像美国境内，其他大部分的社区一样，那么，也许您能举出几个来。美国常被外人形容成「大熔炉」，一个住有许多不同种族及不同信仰居民的地方，因为人种的混杂所致，这个国家会比大家都是同一个样子的情况下，来的有趣的多。
一部分座落在芝加哥境内的第九议会区，是国内种族最多，即差异性最多的议会区之一，里面住有俄国人、印度人、波兰人、巴基斯坦人、拉丁美洲人、海地人、柬埔寨人及其他来自世界各地的人；另外，该区也拥有众多不同的宗教信徒，如：犹太教信徒、回教徒及基督徒，他们全都交会在一起，住在各自的社区内。
第九区所举办的诸多节庆，旨在庆祝令他们感到自豪的多样化，并藉此颂扬让美国成为一个独特国家的人种差异性。
How many ethnic groups can you name that are represented in your community? If your community is like much of the rest of the country, there are probably several. The United States is often referred to as a "melting pot" -- a place where people of many different ethnic groups and faiths live together. Because of this mix of people, the country is a more interesting than it would be if everyone were the same.
The 9th Congressional District of Illinois, part of which is in Chicago, is one of the most ethnically varied, or diverse, congressional districts in the country, with Russian, Indian, Polish, Pakistani, Latino, Haitian, and Cambodian people, among others. There is also a lot of religious diversity, with Jews, Muslims, and Christians all living together in their communities.
Many festivals in the 9th District celebrate "Pride in Diversity" and honor the differences between people and what makes us unique as a country.
