Steppin' Outside the Color Zone

---

Abstract

Why tiptoe around the boundaries—it's time for steppin' outside the color zone. The Multicultural Action Group and Identifying as Me present a program addressing the complexities of cross-cultural relationships. Through interactive discussion and activities we will gain a further understanding of relationships in a variety of spheres: romantic, friendship, family, and business. We will address questions such as: how to approach people, how to make it easier to look at others, how to deal with reaction, why we ask the questions we do, and come to individual conclusions. It is time to stop looking at only the institutional side of cultural relationships and focus on the face-to-face, and dayto- day interactions.
