I work with an Information Technology research & consulting company, Vancouver based, that provides the online means to assist non profits across North America to uncover foundation funding.
Yesterday, our president and CEO took our team out to a working lunch, a lovely restaurant in the heart of the city, where in a private room we hashed out strategy to see how we could be more effective and serve our clients better.
We are a small team: one is from the Punjab, one is from Pakistan, one is from Russia, and there is a team member from China. Oh yes, and there are a couple of Caucasians in the group as well, like myself.
Today I am going to an event in the heart of the city called "Raise your hands against racism" and it is a prelude to the Hindu festival of Holi which begins tomorrow. Holi is a "Festival of Colors", a "Festival of Love", one that signifies the victory of good over evil, one that emphasizes forgiveness, a time to laugh and play.
The ad for this event follows.
I want to continue to live in a world like this, and I want future generations to do so as well. We were not created to be a monochromatic oneness.
