I am Not by James Alan Smith

I am not Muslim, Christian, Jewish or Buddhist.
I am not Black, White, Red, Yellow or Brown.
I am not Gay, Straight, Bi or Trans.
I am not American, Russian, Syrian or anybody defined by a map.

I am HUMAN !

When we categorize our self or others based on their place in
the world or just one part of their total makeup we invite misunderstanding.

When we allow fear and hate to override reason and love,
we then allow everybody to be put in a group that’s different then us.
And when you create a “Them vs US” separation.
You create the foundation for hate and intolerance to grow.

If you ignore anybody’s humanity, you ignore all of humanity in the end.
Practice tolerance and love above all else and find Peace.
