Our Mission Statement:
Intolerance needs to be stopped. After doing this project we realized how much a nation can be effected by acts of greed and hate. As we look at these effects, we see how quickly hate can spread across a nation - and a world.
As we compare the changes in the United States that are caused by war, we notice that when the incident is over, people tend to have a more positive attitude, but the closer you look you realize that we are only covering up the intolerance - this is why these hate acts keep happening. We deny that intolerance exists, and we deny that it exists in us. So how can we use this knowledge to change intolerance?
By knowing intolerance exists and the major effects it has on everyone around us we can make more informed decisions that promote peace and unity instead of hate.
