A lesson too late for the learning? (Around the Island)

What I learned that day, and what I strive to remember every day since then, is this:

What unites us is much, MUCH stronger than that which divides us.

As a society, we need to learn that lesson. It’s still not too late. We can’t let it be too late. Real progress, real healing, can only begin when we stop seeking to define ourselves as “not them” and start seeing ourselves at part of a greater but wonderfully diverse whole.
