Morphology
multicultist = multiculturalist (semi-transparent) = multi + cult + ist
This looks like a clipped form of 'multiculturalist'; the meaning is recoverable from that base, but the shortening is not fully regular for learners.
Etymology
Multicultist comes from three simple parts: multi- meaning 'many', culture meaning 'way of life', and -ist meaning 'a person who supports something'. So a multicultist is someone who supports and values 'many cultures', which explains why they promote cultural diversity.
