**Integregation**: A policy or
system designed to maintain the integrity of
different communities within a multiracial and multicultural
society. It fundamentally supports:
- **Freedom to Integrate**: As the
default national policy, it allows individuals and groups who wish to mix culturally, ethnically, or socially to do so freely.
- **Cultural Integrity**: Simultaneously, it provides protections and liberties for those who prefer to preserve the distinctiveness of their own cultural, ethnic, or community identity without external pressures to assimilate or integrate.
**Integregationism**: The
philosophy or advocacy for the policy of integregation. It posits:
- A recognition of the value in both integration and the preservation of cultural integrity.
- Support for a societal structure where both integration and separation are legally and socially accepted options, each with its own set of freedoms and responsibilities.
**Integregationist**: An individual who supports or advocates for the principles of integregation, believing in a balance where:
- Communities can choose to maintain their cultural, ethnic, or social integrity.
- There's a national policy that does not enforce one
way of living over another but instead allows for choice in how one wishes to engage with the broader
society or remain within one'
s community.
