Public Discourse on Racism & Discrimination
Statement of Solidarity
During this challenging time when our nation is living in a very polarized political environment, The Interfaith Alliance Hawaii (TIAH) believes that it is important that communities of faith remain supportive sanctuaries of peace and harmony for the people they serve. When politics replaces religion, it erodes the unity and spiritual purpose, and instead alienates followers from one another.
TIAH strongly affirms our commitment to acknowledge, honor, and respect the diverse cultures, experiences and perspectives of each person. We must focus on the spiritual principles that bring us together, not the politics that tears us apart. We stand in support of the dignity and human rights for all faith traditions, and we are committed to continuing our work to build a more compassionate and inclusive Hawai’i.
“He who is different from me does not impoverish me – he enriches me.
Our unity is constituted in something higher than ourselves – in Man…
for no man seeks to hear his own echo, or to find his reflection in the
glass.” ~ Antoine de Saint-Exupery
