 ogether. We each must take a stand and personally participate in this impo
 rtant journey of confronting our fears and beginning a conversation not on
 ly with those we love but also with those we have been taught to fear. We 
 cannot continue being separate and unequal without there being a cost to e
 ach and every generation. Our survival and the very future of our children
  depend on all of us embracing our differences as well as our mutuality. I
 f we can accomplish this in our lifetime\, we can then look back and know 
 that we have found a way to live together authentically and harmoniously\,
  using and honoring all of our gifts and special contributions. To Lee Mun
  Wah\, that is the true meaning of multiculturalism.”\n
