Abstract

In today’s multicultural and interconnected world, English as a Second Language (ESL) classrooms are on the front line of embracing diversity. This paper underscores the crucial agenda of incorporating the ethos of diasporic cultural heritage within the context of ESL education. Drawing upon scholarly research and theoretical frameworks, the study identifies effective strategies and approaches for integrating diasporic cultural heritage into ESL classroom discourse. The paper presents practical strategies, such as integrating culturally relevant materials, implementing oral histories and storytelling, and encouraging dialogue around cultural diversity. Furthermore, by actively engaging with diverse cultural perspectives and narratives, students can develop a global mindset, respect for diversity, and the ability to navigate intercultural spaces effectively. In conclusion, intertwining the ethos of diasporic cultural heritage in ESL classroom discourse is a crucial agenda for education. This agenda aligns with the principles of social justice, promotes cross-cultural understanding, empowers students to navigate multiple cultural identities, and equips them with the necessary skills for success in a globalized world.
