Economic Justice Engaged
When we embrace diversity and include those left out or marginalized, we not only set an example for all to see, we give hope to those who often have none. We must place before all the world the common sense of the subject that fair and humane treatment of every human being is their right, no matter the color of their skin, race, gender, or sexual orientation. We need to do it because it is the RIGHT thing to do, not just because it makes good business sense.
