Quote by Philip Glass
I travel the world, and I'm happy to say that America is still the great melting pot - maybe a chunky stew rather than a melting pot at this point, but you know what I mean.
Summary
This quote highlights that America is known for its cultural diversity and has historically been a place where people from different backgrounds come together and blend their cultures. The phrase "melting pot" is commonly used to describe the harmonious blending of different cultures into a new and unique American identity. However, the quote acknowledges that while America is still diverse, it may now be more accurately described as a "chunky stew" - implying that different cultures and identities may be more distinct and less assimilated, yet still coexisting and contributing to the rich tapestry of American society.
