What divides us should enrich us.

School integration enriched my white life.
Cynthia Waszak Geary,
Baltimore, MD.
I grew up in Durham, NC and attended Hillside High School as part of the first court ordered desegregation plan to achieve racial balance. I am heart broken that since that time there has been a steady and deliberate re-segregation of schools in the US. I am hoping for leadership at local, state and federal levels to find ways to reverse this and create greater racial equity in education.
Make art to inform us all.
Clare Hilger
As an artist and art teacher I believe art can make us consider important issues in our world though visual means impacting us intellectually aesthetically, and emotionally. We enrich our lives through the sharing of art.
If embraced will enrich our lives

Why ignore race and try to say that color doesn’t matter when it should. Only when we acknowledge and embrace one another’s differences will we our own close-mindedness be broadened and enriched.
