Description

Introduction Tolerance is based on difference or diversity. However, while creating a systemwide multicultural educational program for Changeton School District in 1993, the Central Steering Committee rejected the idea of using the term tolerance in their mission statement (Leistyna, 2002). A number of supporters of multicultural education also either give tolerance a minor role or reject it completely. At the same time, other supporters continue to embrace the term tolerance and imbue it with connotative meaning. This article will examine the opposing views on tolerance from the early 1990s to the present, and discuss the problems related with the rejection-of-tolerance stance.
