Multiculturalism regard biculturalism---inadequately progressive

• In the context of US
o Bicultural distinction

between the White and the African American population
Because the word “biculturalism” suggests, more or less explicitly, that only two cultures merit formal recognition, advocates of multiculturalism may regard bicultural outlooks as inadequately progressive in comparison因为“双文化主义”这个词或多或少明确地表明,只有两种文化值得正式承认,相比之下,多元文化主义的倡导者可能会认为双文化的观点不够进步
Merit v. 值得,应受;应受赏(或罚)transcend v. 超出,超越;胜过(某人),超过(某项成就)
