- Trevor Noah - a US-based comedian - made a joke about how 'Africa won the world cup' in 2018.
- He received a letter response from the ambassador of France, criticizing the joke he made.

There are 2 main ways in which governments respond to diversity - Assimilation & Integration.

Assimilation refers to a policy in which immigrants are expected to adopt the beliefs and practices of the majority group in the host country.

Objective: no differentiation between immigrants and locals

Integration refers to a policy in which immigrants retain their unique identities, while forging a common ground with groups already living in the host country.

Objective: immigrants and locals are distinct from each other, but share certain common behaviours/characteristics
