relationships are powerful. our one-to-one connections with each other are the foundation for change. and building relationships with people from different cultures, often many different cultures, is key in building diverse communities that are powerful enough to achieve significant goals.
whether you want to make sure your children get a good education, bring quality health care into your communities, or promote economic development, there is a good chance you will need to work with people from several different racial, language, ethnic, or economic groups. and in order to work with people from different cultural groups effectively, you will need to build sturdy and caring relationships based on trust, understanding, and shared goals.
why? because trusting relationships are the glue that hold people together as they work on a common problem. as people work on challenging problems, they will have to hang in there together when things get hard. they will have to support each other to stay with an effort, even when it feels discouraging. people will have to resist the efforts of those who use divide-and-conquer techniques--pitting one cultural group against another.
