Focusing on what unites us and not what divides us

This website seeks to highlight the efforts by organizations, activists, etc. to bring together people of different cultures or races, genders, religions and socioeconomic classes, encourage conversations that increase some level of understanding and tolerance between different groups, host unifying events, etc.

Although everyone may not always agree about their various beliefs and may not be completely understanding of everyone’s background and point-of-view, it might be interesting to examine the ways that people can at least learn to respect and understand other people’s perspectives and beliefs.

From Memphis to Atlanta to Raleigh, we have found groups and people who are focused up on lifting up instead of holding down. We hope you will learn and be uplifted by reading about them.
