Читать книгу Time Bring About a Change - Tony J.D. Carr - Страница 4
Foreword
ОглавлениеThis book was written first and foremost in honor and memory of my grandparents and parents and countless others in our nations history who faced injustices and dehumanization while not having the voice or support to speak up for what was right. The struggles of the past should never be forgotten; we must understand our past to create a better future.
We as a society have become more tolerant, but we still have many obstacles to overcome. We must unite to ensure a brighter tomorrow for our children and their children. The chain of generational ignorance and racism must be broken. Rather than be divided by race, we must become simply the human race.
Some people may find it difficult to change their prejudices—and the truth is, we all have them—but I challenge people to just try to become more sensitive to people’s differences and to think carefully before speaking. If more of us would put those two simple actions into practice, our society would be on the way to becoming far more positive and unified. The title of my book comes from a hope expressed by my grandfather. I heard him say many times from my youth into my adult years: “Time bring about a change.”
Peace,
Tony Carr
