RACISM - CAN WE INDIVIDUALLY MAKE A DIFFERENCE?

LOOK AROUND! How do you feel about people of skin color or ethnic group different from your own? Do you view them as equal?

In 1969 Richard Milhous Nixion – US President said in his inaugural address concerning race:

“We will strive to listen in new ways . . . to the injured voices, the anxious voices, the voices that have despaired of being heard. . . . What remains is to give life to what is in the law: to ensure at last that as all are born equal in dignity before God, all are born equal in dignity before man.”

Another words “All human beings are born free and equal in dignity and rights. They are endowed with reason and conscience and should act towards one another in a spirit of brotherhood.”—Article 1 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights.

Some in the world will disagree with these words. However, many, many persons would like to be able to live together better and, get along because they see that all human are part of humanity.

    
This Poem and Video shows that changes are needed, and a fine example of the Touhy Family who demonstrated not just an act of kindness but, an act of love, by extending a hand to a child of another race who was in need. Not only was the child helped, but such help made a deep lasting impression on the family too. Thank you Touhy Family for seeting a good example in caring for another.

What can we individually do physically, spiritually, emotionally and, mentally to make a difference?
