• Answer:

  this sounds like a high school level paper... and not too difficult.. Cultural diversity is a better more specific topic. Use google scholar search or your schools library ( if you are able to). 2 journals are not that much... there are social/cultural journals in most college libraries or municipal libraries. you need to ask a question, or have one in mind to narrow that down even further. I am assuming since you posted in a GLBT place, you want to focus on GLBT culture. that is a great topic.
