We know the secret to racial harmony
From the coffee house to the schools, why do we continue to hear and read that negative racial issues can only be resolved by debate and more and more money as if it is our rescuer from intolerance?
Each week I participate with a group of people who actually enjoy being with people of all races and there has never been a problem about intolerance. The only racial activity that I’ve ever seen in this organization are people of all races who greet each other with acceptance, hugs and sharing in many different ways.
This group never meets to discuss racial problems because racial problems don’t exist. They give thousands of dollars to help people of different races – locally and around the world.
So, all of this begs the question about how we accomplish this? It’s called acceptance – that’s the biblical word for love.
