In my professional work as a diversity facilitator and in my personal life, I have seen the effects of discrimination and hate crimes. I was one of the organizers of the Freedom Ride '99 marking the 35th anniversary of the murders of Chaney, Goodman, and Schwerner in Mississippi. We still hear the same rhetoric which led to their murders. We need to build a caring, respectful and diverse community and nation.
