"Assimilation is described as a process where outsiders change themselves to become part of the more dominant host society....Integration isn’t about loosing identity, rather maintaining your beliefs and being able to celebrate your differences to work with other societies. It is seen as a mutual compr[rom]ise.
"A really good way to remember, is that assimilation as being a soup, where ingredients are able to lose their identity as they are blended together. Where integration is linked a a fruit salad with a bit of granola where it tastes wonderful because the difference in flavour, colour, and size all contribute to make one beautiful dish."
