What the quote and image mean to me is that often times the minority culture is forced to assimilate into the majority culture. I believe it is critical we embrace all cultures whether they are the majority or minority.

We should be considerate towards others because we all go through different situations at home. The image I believe displays the diversity found in a particular classroom. I think overall that the quote is a very influential because of its meaning that we should take the time to learn more about each person.
