Diversity
Everyone is unique!
Many times our closed minds shield us from some wonderful people, who could turn out to be amazing friends. You either embrace diversity and grow, or you resist it and struggle. Following several activities and stories looking at the world from a condensed perspective, the need for acceptance, understanding, inclusion, tolerance and education not only in our school community, but on a global scale, becomes glaringly apparent. This topic addresses all aspects of diversity, and begins to shed some light on the necessity for us to see all human beings with the lens of our hearts, and not just our eyes. This presentation teaches one how to be more compassionate and open-minded with people who are different by moving past our unfounded assumptions about other groups and backgrounds. Finally, everyone is invited to meet someone new, which allows for a deeper understanding of the uniqueness in others!
