We live in a diverse world but often times where we live can shelter us from the many different kinds of people that exist. Even in public places we tend to ignore people of a different race‚ religion or class. It is said but someone we consider our peer we are more likely to acknowledge. Not many environments cultivate a situation where people interact comfortably with other types of people but one such place is what author Elijah Anderson calls “Cosmopolitan canopies” (xiv).
