Magic of Diversity

“We are all equal in the fact that we are all different. We are all the same in the fact that we will never be the same. We are united by the reality that all colours and all cultures are distinct & individual. We are harmonious in the reality that we are all held to this earth by the same gravity. We don't share blood, but we share the air that keeps us alive. I will not blind myself and say that my black brother is not different from me. I will not blind myself and say that my brown sister is not different from me. But my black brother is he as much as I am me. But my brown sister is she as much as I am me.” 
― C. JoyBell C.

Magic of Diversity: Black History Month Statement by the Honourable Jim Karygiannis, Member of Parliament for Scarborough-Agincourt

“A people without the knowledge of their past history, origin and culture is like a tree without roots.”Marcus Garvey

February is Black History Month in Canada – a time to celebrate and recognize the contributions of people of African descent to the Canadian mosaic.

In 1995, Members of Parliament voted unanimously in favour of a Motion introduced by the Honourable Jean Augustine, M.P. -  

That this House take note of the important contribution of black Canadians to the settlement, growth and development of Canada, the diversity of the black community in Canada and its importance to the history of this country, and recognize February as black history month.

The first national recognition of Black History Month was in February 1996.

I encourage all Canadians to take the time to learn about the history and experiences of black Canadians - the struggle, triumphs and the significant contributions that have been made, and are being made, to our multicultural society.StarBuzzOnline.com

The uniformity of earth's life, more astonishing than its diversity, is accountable by the high probability that we derived, originally, from some single cell, fertilized in a bolt of lightning as the earth cooled.

"Difference is of the essence of humanity. Difference is an accident of birth and it should therefore never be the source of hatred or conflict. The answer to difference is to respect it. Therein lies a most fundamental principle of peace: respect for diversity".

The Magic of Diversity

StarBuzz Weekly, Toronto-``Canadians can be proud of our country and its achievements. Together we have built a nation that is prosperous and safe; a country where what matters is who you are and what you do, not who you know or where you're from; a place where people from around the world can live in harmony; a federation that is more united at home and respected abroad than it has been for decades``.

"A human being is a part of the whole that we call the universe, a part limited in time and space. He experiences himself, his thoughts and feelings, as something separated from the rest -- a kind of optical illusion of his consciousness. This illusion is a prison for us, restricting us to our personal desires and to affection for only the few people nearest us. Our task must be to free ourselves from this prison by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living beings and all of nature."
Albert Einstein
