“Life’s most persistent and urgent question is, ‘What are you doing for
others?’’– Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.


“Service is the rent we pay for the privilege of living on this earth.” – Shirley
Chisholm

“There can be no greater gift than that of giving ones time and energy to help others without expecting anything in return.” – Nelson Mandela

In Yoruba culture, the practice of demonstrating good will towards others, not merely thinking it or describing it but actually demonstrating it, is valued highly. Therefore, Inu Rere, or goodwill, is considered a key component of one’s character. Nowadays, we often hear people refer to themselves as “allies…” whether supporting the efforts of Indigenous people, visible minorities, women, persons with disabilities, people with low income, members of LGBTQ communities, or those experiencing discrimination on the basis of their religion. “Ally” is a term that is frequently misunderstood. Being an ally requires more than liking or sharing the odd social media post. Beingan ally really involves: • Supporting an oppressed person or group • Being willing to listen and to be educated about others’ experiences • Remaining in solidarity, without retreating into your own privilege when the going gets tough • Educating people within your own group about what’s happening to others, and how they can help in our efforts to be better.

Local history offers us many examples of effective alliances and partnerships between people of African descent and others. The Underground Railroad was a clandestine network made up of people of African, European, and sometimes Indigenous descent. They were committed to helping freedom seekers find their way north. With the help of these allies, thousands crossed the Detroit River to emancipate themselves and build new lives in what is now Ontario. Highly successful initiatives such as the Refugee Home Society (Essex County) along with the Elgin Settlement (Buxton) and the Dawn Settlement (Dresden) in Chatham-Kent were co-facilitated by people of African and European descent. These groups worked together to help formerly enisslaved people own property, become successful farmers or tradespeople, and profit from their own skills for the first time.

In the 1940s and 50s, the Windsor Interracial Council, (also known as the Windsor Council on Group Relation) which included men and women of both African and European descent, collaborated to end racial segregation in local housing, restaurants, and hotels. Not only were they a multiracial group, but they were made up of people with diverse philosophical backgrounds— labour activists, educators, clergy and
laypeople from local churches, and others— who shared a common goal and had the good will to see past their differences and work together.

It is easy enough to care about and support people whose issues are exactly
like our own, but a true sign of good character is the ability to support those
who are different from ourselves. Consider how effective you are as an ally
to others, and what you can do to serve others more successfully in the future. After all, as Maya Angelou wrote, “If you find it in your heart to care for somebody else, you will have succeeded.”

Сега обаче съвсем не е така и онлайн казината предлагат какви ли не версии, както на стари класически слотове, така и на стотици и дори хиляди нови заглавия на компаниите, които ги произвеждат. Полезен бонус пакет за добре дошли се състои от 55 FS 300 лв. без депозит. Игралният клуб предоставя опция за използване на промо код и получаване на допълнителен бонус “инкогнито”. Това е казино игра, която се играе като се хвърлят зарове. Тя е лесна за усвояване, забавна е, но не е толкова популярна сред играчите, тъй като от нея не могат да се спечелят много високи печалби. И все пак, ние я добавяме към нашия списък с доходоносните казино игри, тъй като това е една от най-бюджетните игри, от която търпеливите играчи могат да печелят добри и доста редовни суми. https://forums.it-alfa.com/profile/jyhcecil6085551/ Betway casino вече е достъпно в България! Компанията официално получи своя лиценз в страната и приветства всички желаещи да се регистрират от България. Онлайн казиното на бранда събира в едно редица слот игри, рулетка, блекджек и други предложения. Бонусите без депозит са присъщи за по-малки и предимно чуждестранни платформи, и по-скоро са изключение, а не правило. Такъв стартов бонус без депозит не се предлага от сериозните букмейкъри на български пазар. Затова и популярността им все повече намалява.

  281. Thanks for your publication. I would like to remark that the first thing you will need to do is check if you really need fixing credit. To do that you have got to get your hands on a duplicate of your credit rating. That should really not be difficult, because government makes it necessary that you are allowed to obtain one free of charge copy of your credit report per year. You just have to request the right individuals. You can either look at website for the Federal Trade Commission as well as contact one of the main credit agencies directly.

  287. Can I just say what a aid to seek out someone who actually knows what theyre speaking about on the internet. You definitely know the right way to convey a problem to gentle and make it important. Extra individuals need to learn this and understand this facet of the story. I cant imagine youre not more popular because you positively have the gift.

  295. What I have observed in terms of computer system memory is always that there are specs such as SDRAM, DDR etc, that must match up the features of the mother board. If the personal computer’s motherboard is fairly current while there are no main system issues, changing the ram literally usually takes under one hour. It’s among the list of easiest computer system upgrade processes one can picture. Thanks for discussing your ideas.

  296. In the awesome design of things you actually secure a B+ with regard to hard work. Exactly where you misplaced me was first on your facts. As as the maxim goes, the devil is in the details… And it couldn’t be more accurate in this article. Having said that, allow me reveal to you exactly what did give good results. Your article (parts of it) is incredibly convincing and that is most likely why I am taking an effort in order to opine. I do not really make it a regular habit of doing that. Second, whilst I can easily see a leaps in reasoning you come up with, I am definitely not confident of how you seem to unite your points which produce the final result. For right now I shall subscribe to your issue but wish in the near future you link your facts better.JJ’s Ducted Gas Heating Repairs and Installation 162 Mitchell Rd, Lilydale VIC 3140 0412 531 821

  303. One more thing I would like to express is that instead of trying to suit all your online degree training on days that you finish work (because most people are worn out when they get home), try to find most of your classes on the weekends and only a couple courses in weekdays, even if it means a little time away from your saturdays. This is fantastic because on the saturdays and sundays, you will be a lot more rested plus concentrated on school work. Many thanks for the different points I have learned from your blog.

I am very glad to see such fantastic info being shared freely out there. Aussie John’s Ducted Gas Heating Repairs and Installation 706 Bourke St, Docklands VIC 3008

  310. I have seen that good real estate agents everywhere are Promotion. They are seeing that it’s more than just placing a sign in the front area. It’s really regarding building human relationships with these suppliers who one of these days will become purchasers. So, whenever you give your time and effort to encouraging these vendors go it alone : the “Law associated with Reciprocity” kicks in. Great blog post.
