The world is made up of a rainbow of people. We come from different cultural backgrounds and we each have our own identity. Let us start respecting each other for who we are. Justice and equality for all regardless of race, sexual preference, class, and ability. Teach love. Teach unity. Teach respect. Teach understanding. We all make important contributions to the world in which we live. "Anti-bias education work in early childhood is shaped by a deep-seated belief in the importance of justice, the dream of each child being able to achieve all he or she is capable of , the knowledge that together human beings can make a difference" (Derman-Sparks & Edwards, 2010, p. 9).

ReplyDeleteLike that beautiful rainbow umbrella, we all together make a beautiful picture.
I notice the smiles on all the faces are the same. The groupings differ but the love from bonding is the same. If we could learn to help the pain and tears but leave those who are happy and complete alone, oh what a world it would be!
Thanks for these thoughts.
Allison,
ReplyDeleteThanks for your thoughts about everyone contributing to our world. Respecting and appreciating one another would enable everyone share and explore what they have inside of them.
Thanks for your thoughts
Allison,
ReplyDeleteI love the pictures you selected. I agree with Bobbie that it's lovely to see that all the smiles are the same and yet, the faces are all different. It's a beautiful thing to open our eyes to the posibility of happiness and love outside of what is "normal" for us personally. Excellent post!
