Tour For Tolerance Tft

We are Holocaust survivors, whites, Blacks, Jews, people from all ethnic groups combating hate, extremism, intolerance, and bigotry with the tools of education; replacing that evil with empathy, tolerance, compassion, inclusion, and love. Throughout history, wars have raged for the simple fact that one person doesn’t look the same as another, worship the same, vote for the same leader, or party affiliation, or call the same country home. Each time one of these atrocities comes to an end, our collective conscience says, “never again” but history repeats itself, often more brutally than before. Tolerance and diversity are under fierce social and political attack. Coming to grips with what divides us is crucially needed today. Through the Tour for Tolerance, we can encourage youth to avoid the mistakes of the past and the mistakes that have yet to occur. Instead, they can choose to extend a hand to all of humanity, regardless of gender, sexual orientation, disability, race, faith, country of origin, economic status or any of the distinctions used to diminish groups of people. Together, we are making the world a better place to live.
