New Release! Celebrate Diversity! is a must for every Educator, and Community
and Organizational Leader!
Our world has changed, but have we? Today we may work, learn, communicate, and
worship with many people who do not look, think, speak, or act like us. Fairness and
non-discrimination with students, employees and the public is essential in all aspects of
government, education, and business.
We must all grow personally and organizationally to be able to accept and value people
with different views, beliefs, and practices. It is essential for Leaders to re-examine their
personal beliefs and values in order to be able to embrace their neighborhoods,
schools, and workplaces as they exist and continue to evolve.
Celebrate Diversity! captures the spirit of adventure needed to gratefully grasp
the potential our diversity provides. Read reviews and order here

The events of 9/11 crystallized for Sue Kidd Shipe, Ph.D.,
the belief that we must unite as peoples of the United States,
and indeed of the world, against those who seek to destroy our
freedoms. The beautiful diversity that we share was challenged,
making us fearful, and causing us to begin to close our hearts to those whom we might have trusted.
We have a choice. We can be afraid of anyone different from
ourselves, look out only for ourselves, and live so that only the
fittest survive. We can allow terrorism to win by shutting our-selves down.
Or, we can decide in our hearts and minds that humanity is one family with many
beautiful expressions of color, language, and customs. We can say that we will honor
all those lost, and those who mourn, by declaring that we will unite toward a True
Democracy--where all are equal, and all are free!
Celebrate Diversity! was written to enhance existing diversity programs or help begin a
new one. It will guide us as we begin to explore this wonderful voyage. But it’s far more
than a program; it’s a way of living.
We can do nothing and allow terrorism to divide us. Or, we can take steps, small or
large, to begin this healing journey.
The choice is ours.
The time is now.
It may be our only chance.
Let’s start before it is too late!
