Enormity: The lesson of diversity is a simple one, a compelling one, one that’s been demonstrated over and over again. Diverse populations solve problems better and faster than homogenous ones. But the selfish value of treating people of all backgrounds in the same way is just part of the Reverend’s message. The other part, the part that’s easy to forget, is that when confronted with enormity, worldviews change. And if you want to engage with someone, you have no choice but to understand that. You don’t have to experience the emotion in order to be able to respect someone who has. [Beautifully said. This year’s Martin Luther King day was very special to me.]
