Ok I guess i'm one of the few but I still see assimilation as something bad. I mentioned to Jeff in class as still picturing the Star Trek movie and "Prepare to be assimilated" It just gives me a bad picture in my head. Its like being forced to do something you don't want to do. After going over everything in class I can see that's not necessarily the case. It can be done voluntary like when you're moving to a different country and trying to fit and you want to become a part of a new society.
As far as pluralism goes, I still don't get it. I did some more research on the internet today and I see it more as multiculturalism than anything. But I guess that only deals with the cultural pluralism. There is just a lot to absorb with both of these topics.
