Sadly, so. And you could probably swap in loads of sports/passtimes. "Society" might work in there too. Depressing thoughts.

It depends - relatively homogenous people? yeah maybe, that seems fair.
Teachers dressing up in other cultures clothing etc to add a veneer of authenticity? Not so much.
I tend to think that whereas the first point isn’t great, it kind of depends on the reasons - being unwelcoming is obviously a problem, but nor can you force a diverse group of people to do things.
The second seems to me worse.
