100 Questions and Answers About Immigrants to the U.S. is part of the Michigan State University School of Journalism series on cultural competence.
This guide has sections on identity, language, religion, culture, customs, social norms, economics, politics, education, work, families and food.
The guide is written for those who want quick answers to basic, introductory questions about U.S. immigrants. It is a starting point, for people in business, schools, places of worship, government, medicine, law enforcement, human resources and journalism who want to get a fast grounding. The guide suggests resources for those who then want greater depth. The guide was written in 2016 against the backdrop the presidential campaign.

About the Author
The concept of this series is to teach cultural competence by spreading awareness about a specific group or community. Ultimately, the goal is to break down cultural and socially constructed walls by opening up discussion among groups.
The guides have been used in diversity training in business, the health industry, universities and law enforcement.
We approach cultural competence on the basis that questions asked out of sincere interest, even if phrased in a less than graceful manner, are the best way to bridge cultures. The guides are meant to start that process and to lead to face-to-face conversations. The guides are icebreakers individuals can read on their own to make awkward conversations easier. Answers in these cultural competence guides are meant to be clear, honest and non-judgmental.
