| A unique response to breaking down fear, hate, and intolerance, and a demonstration of possibilities for deeper understanding between the world's children utilizing creative arts for social healing. This project brings to life the process of how enemies become allies when they are willing to step into the other's shoes and create something new together. Objectives are: recognizing the destructiveness of prejudice and discrimination, transcending tolerance and creating acceptance and empathy, dramatizing behavior leading to stereotyping and fear of the Other, enhancing understanding of each others feelings through mutual role playing, and experiencing the power of creating something new together…a song…an expression of peace |
