My goal is to help form links between these little pools of potential wealth on campus. Knowledge of each group's experience is the potential wealth of which I speak. This kind of wealth is unique because unlike money which one must save to create, one must share this kind of wealth to increase its abundance. Pools of potential wealth will remain potential wealth until a communications network, like the one I envision, has been established. If only we as a community could move past fear and misunderstanding, construction on the network could begin.
Color is a permanent fixture of our lives, and what a blessing the permanence of color is.
Very literally, a world without race would be colorless. The world would be colorless in the worst ways - lacking dynamics, lacking vibrancy. In a colorless world, even the sky would seem dismal and stale. We would live in endless winter days of stagnant gray and the heat of the sun would not penetrate the clouds of ignorance. My ideal of a global village comes into view as a world where the hues of color overflow in purple skies, silver rain, and rainbow-ed people.
