In a quaint American town called Virginia, a diverse group converged to craft a large symbolic necklace, each bead telling a unique story of heritage. Through the shared act of creation, the participants found a newfound understanding of each other's cultures and backgrounds. Stories unfolded as beads of various origins intertwined, creating a rich narrative that transcended individual differences. The shared experience fostered empathy, building bridges of understanding among the participants. After completing necklace, the group discovered a powerful outcome – a community united by a better understanding of diverse backgrounds. Tolerance flourished, transforming the community into a more harmonious and accepting place. The necklace, once a collection of separate stories, now symbolised the collective strength that comes from embracing differences. As the symbolic necklace adorns the town library, it has became a beacon of hope and a reminder that in unity, there is resilience. The community, now knit together by shared experiences, embraced a brighter future where diversity was not only acknowledged but celebrated, demonstrating the profound impact of a simple act of creativity on fostering tolerance and acceptance. #O_O_O_O #positiveoutcomes #communitybuilding #togetherasone

Our goal with the "Buy & Build Back Your Block" initiative is to raise the bar collectively and accelerate the pace of change within commercial real estate. Who's in?
Crains New York Business put out an article earlier this year on The Families Behind the Most Recognizable Buildings in New York. Highlights suggest New York is real estate, and the foundation of that real estate is in many cases families. Those cited with influence on the streetscape and how the city runs include the Dursts, Kushners, Silversteins and Goldman’s — but it got me thinking. Why Not Mine? Why Not Yours? Tasking our most influential BIPOC Professionals, Artists, Athletes & Entertainers to consider an investment alternative...buy back your old block! NYC and nationwide. Stay tuned for pending economic & community development initiatives by PRI-O-LEAU Development Group (PDG)

In Common follows the journey of SuperBrady and Ben as they travel to the land of Difference and the land of Common. SuperBrady and Ben meet the many inhabitants of these lands and observe the relationships they share. As their journey unfolds, SuperBrady helps Ben learn an important lesson that though it's easy to see how someone is different than you, it's more fun to take the time to discover what you might have in common with them. No matter a person's ability, gender, race, or where they live, we all are more alike than different. https://lnkd.in/ep5THYV9

Nurturing Our Nation Through Simple Acts" Beyond the grandeur of national celebrations lies a profound truth: true patriotism is found in the tapestry of our daily lives. It's in the decision to support local businesses, fostering community bonds, and extending a helping hand to those in need. Every purchase from a local store contributes to the economic heartbeat of our community. Each act of kindness, no matter how small, creates ripples that resonate far beyond our immediate surroundings. By actively participating in the well-being of our neighborhoods, we cultivate a spirit of unity and resilience. Consider the impact of engaging in open conversations, embracing diversity, and understanding differing perspectives. These are not just interpersonal skills but the building blocks of a stronger, more compassionate society. In our day-to-day interactions, we have the power to break down barriers, dispel prejudices, and foster an inclusive environment for everyone. Every smile shared, every moment of support offered, and every act of empathy sown contributes to the rich fabric of our nation. It's a call to action for each one of us to be conscious architects of positive change. Let's reflect on the power we hold within our daily choices and interactions. In these small yet deliberate acts, we unveil the essence of everyday patriotism. Together, let's nurture the values that bind us, creating a nation where each citizen plays a role in shaping a brighter tomorrow. #EverydayPatriotism #communitybuilding #smallactsmatter

Have you ever thought about how DEI efforts in the outdoor realm can improve peoples' lives? Did you know that 74% of communities of color in the contiguous United States live in nature-deprived areas, compared with just 23 percent of white communities?* This interesting article from the Outdoor Industry Association celebrates Hispanic leaders who are working to foster outdoor spaces that are inclusive, equitable, and diverse. Kudos to these people who are working to make sure everyone has access and feels welcome to enjoy the beauty of nature close to where they live. *Source: Vincent A. Landau, Meredith L. McClure, and Brett G. Dickson, “Analysis of the Disparities in Nature Loss and Access to Nature. Technical Report.” (Truckee, CA: Conservation Science Partners, 2020) https://lnkd.in/eTqeKqpX
