Blogmaster usually takes the bottom slot, but the subject this week is too important to appear last. Painting so many faces of evil in 2011 was good practice for painting today's face of goodness: a face that fell victim not necessarily to an evil individual, but surely victim to an evil attitude, and one that unfortunately is too prevalent in society today.
We are disrespectful and afraid of people, ideas, faiths, families—and on and on—that are not exactly like our own. At best this leads to bigotry we may not even be aware of. At worst, it leads to the death of innocents. Most of us could stand to reflect a moment on our own prejudices and perhaps pledge to open our minds and hearts a little more where those attitudes are concerned. To begin, try thinking "some..." or "many..." instead of "all...." Less emphasis on Standing Your Ground, more emphasis on Finding Common Ground. Thank you for listening; please enjoy the artwork from today's Salon.
