My humanity is bound up in yours, for we can only be human together. - Desmond Tutu

God's dream is that you and I and all of us will realize that we are family, that we are made for togetherness, for goodness, and for compassion.

as we say in our African idiom, a person is a person through other persons. To dehumanize another inexorably means that one is dehumanized as well.

It was relatively easy, we now realize, to categorize countries and nations. You knew who your enemies were and whom you could count on as collaborators and friends. And even more importantly, you had ready-made scapegoats to take the blame when things were going wrong.
