In an environment
of love and trust born of common belief, practice, and mission, individuals of
different races will have the intimate connection of heart and mind upon which
mutual understanding and change depend. As a result of their training and deepening,
a growing number of believers will draw insights from the Writings to
sensitively and effectively address issues of racial prejudice that arise
within their personal lives and families, among community members, and in
social settings and the workplace. As programs of growth advance and the scope
and intensity of activities grow, the friends will be drawn into participation
in conversations and, in time, initiatives for social action at the grassroots
where issues pertaining to freedom from prejudice naturally emerge, whether
directly or indirectly. . . .
