One can appreciate other cultures without wanting to see it on one's local streets.
Wut?
I'm reading that as "people are supposed to be segregated," and I whole heartedly disagree.
Where I live, we have people from all over the world, speaking nearly every language, practicing nearly every religion (No 5 Rd in Richmond, BC, has ~10 churches/temples in a row from every major religion), and making & eating nearly every type of ethnic cuisine - which is awesome.. I have the option of going to a restaurant and having nearly anything the world has to offer.
We have a Chinatown, little Italy, little India areas, a Vietnamese strip, quite a few Philippinos, Persians, the Croatian cultural Centre, an Australian one, plenty of Persians, people from Hong Kong & tons from mainland China, a few Africans & Jamaicans (WAY more black people in Toronto than here on the West Coast), Brazilians, Russians, Syrians, Indigenous people etc etc etc. We especially have a lot of Chinese & Indians here, but there are people here from almost every country you could think of. And yes, we have Mexicans, too.. I build walls with them, actually, and they're for everyone.
There's Chinese New Year, the Sikhs have their Diwali parade, there's a Brazil Fest party in the streets, Italian Days on Commercial Drive, and probably a bunch of other cultural parties in the streets I'm forgetting. Oh yeah, Pride is the biggest one - there's literally more than half a Million people partying in the streets & everywhere for that one - the biggest of the year by far.
If everyone and everything was all just a bunch of same-same sameness monoculture around here IMO things would be pretty boring.
