We live in a diverse world. Because of that diversity, conflict is a natural part of life. Conflict can destroy peace or create peace. Are you a peace destroyer or peace maker? When faced with differences of opinion, remember the following:
Accept differences and ask questions in order to get to know self and those who are different from us in dress, speech, and beliefs. Find value in everyone we meet each day. Know our rights as a citizen. We are all protected by rights such as civil, real estate, and landlord tenant law.
Connect to family, friends and neighbors. Know that our actions impact a larger community - even those we do not know personally. If your rights are violated speak up or find a group like Legal Aid to speak up for when needed in life.
