Harmony Day on 21 March marks the International Day for the Elimination of Racial Discrimination. The United Nations established Harmony Day to highlight the struggle against racism and prejudice, in memory of the 69 protestors killed in Sharpeville, South Africa, in 1960 as the demonstrated against the apartheid laws. Harmony Week reminds us of the challenges that many people continue to face in workplaces, communities and broader societies. In Australia, Harmony week is also a time to recognise and celebrate our diversity. Australia is one of the most successful multicultural countries in the world. Harmony week reminds us all of the importance of continuing to work to maintain and strengthen diversity, inclusion and a sense of belonging for everyone - including here at the AHC Singapore.

What do you celebrate? I celebrate those who’ve experienced trauma but instead of playing the victim card, they’ve chosen to use their experience as a catalyst to make the world a better place. I celebrate those who’ve been successful enough that they could satisfy every personal want, yet they choose to give to create transformative opportunities for those in need. I celebrate the young parents who don’t have it all together, but they are giving it their best. I celebrate the single mom who is working two jobs and raising kids on her own. I celebrate the dad who pays child support and keeps showing up for his kids even though he didn’t receive a fair shake. I celebrate those who've made mistakes but refuse to be forever defined by them. I celebrate the organizations that do business justly and treat employees fairly. I celebrate the employees who show up in toxic environments to put food on the table until they can find something better. I celebrate everyone who is seeking to serve rather than be served. I celebrate those who love their neighbors as they love themselves. I celebrate the poor who live with joy amid difficult circumstances. I celebrate the rich who build bridges rather than walls. I celebrate everyone who is seeking to make much of King Jesus rather than try to find a crown for themselves. What do you celebrate?

This is an incredibly powerful and moving celebration of resilience, compassion, service, and human dignity. You elevate those who have persevered through trauma to become catalysts for positive change, using their pain to make the world better. Applauding individuals who find fulfillment in giving back and creating opportunities for others, despite enjoying personal success, is so inspiring. Your recognition of the struggles of young, single parents giving their all; fathers staying present despite adversity; individuals refusing to be defined by past mistakes - it exalts the extraordinary strength and grace found in ordinary lives. Celebrating ethical businesses, employees persisting through toxicity, and all those choosing service over self-interest is a poignant reminder of the heroes among us. But perhaps most profoundly, you celebrate the human ability to find light in darkness - the poor embracing joy, the rich building bridges, and all those making "much of King Jesus" through humble purpose rather than ego. An incredibly beautiful appreciation of the capacity for human dignity and resilience in the face of any circumstance. In a world often focused on division and negativity, your vision lifts up what is most noble and uplifting in the the human spirit. A perspective that makes space for empathy, nuance and the sacredness in everyday perseverance. An immensely powerful and hope-giving outlook that I deeply resonate with and aspire to embody. Truly a must-read for anyone seeking a restored faith in our vast potential for good.

The post presents an essential question about the sincerity of support for issues regarding the African American body, emphasizing that true freedom is intertwined and cannot be selective. It tells about the importance of understanding that one is not truly free until everyone is free, emphasizing the interconnectedness of our destinies. Furthermore, it highlights the significance of allies, acknowledging my recent internal struggle to extend solidarity when others may not have reciprocated in moments of need. The message encourages a broader perspective on unity, suggesting that collective progress requires reflection, accountability, and inclusive activism. I urge activists, advocates, and leaders committed to advancing the African American community to engage beyond trending topics. Respond to the cries for justice and equality overall rather than solely concentrating on issues like police brutality.

Black and Jewish people must unite in their efforts to address racism and antisemitism. This collaboration doesn’t imply that one form of racism and antisemitism is more significant than the other, and it’s essential that Black and Brown Jewish people are integral to these conversations and dialogues, particularly when race and antisemitism intersect. Black and Brown Jewish people uniquely understand this intersection. They possess the cultural literacy, competency, and references necessary to discuss both race and antisemitism with the required nuance and depth. Such inclusive dialogues are crucial for fostering mutual understanding and effective collaboration.
