Despite the ethnic diversity within each nation, the social fabric of the region by and large is one.

Herald Cry Humane Humanity
it has been said
that the creative talents
of a nation's people
is of critical importance
to a nation's future
the vitality well being
of cities are essential
to every community
every ethnic element
within society must survive;
must prosper flourish develop
least unique diversity be lost;
a national curriculum of arts
can assist all component sections
of a nation to come to terms
with consequence rapid changes
happening within globalization
market driven inequity policies
diminishing government support
impact of such simple diet changes
as ease fast food MacDonaldisation.
I believe a nation can best
be judged by how it treats
its own poor; their potential
development; inherent rights
of all multicultural citizens
of this gem interwoven planet;
entitlement to a basic good
healthy productive life
honour cultural uniqueness;
let humanity be fused
with these mosaic cultures
articulate unity in diversity
abolish discriminatory laws
embrace race relationships
believe nobility 'many as one'
morality beliefs values
enter love melting pots
merge diverse multicultural;
'herald cry humane humanity'
which thus cannot turn
a blind eye to capitalist;
exploitation of all world poor;
but especially those in our third;
world in contemporary global society.

Fluidity
People are everywhere you go.
Pottering from A to B.
The fabric of a nation.
People are everywhere you may be.
They can nearly always see.
Pottering from to and fro,
Always dying to 'go'.
Looking for the man in the 'know'.
Eccentric, pedantic,
A million varieties.
-Always looking for more.
Never certain where to go.
People are everywhere.
On the river, down the lane.
Pottering from B to A.
The fabric of a nation,
Its daydream whims
Turned into reality.
Fluid is the day of night.

Desired To Be Conveyed
Great!
The new poster looks fantastic.
It clearly suggests the incorporation,
Of diversity.
Very well done.
However,
I do have this question...
Why is it that those intrumental...
In creating conflict and division,
Are the very same people...
In overpaid positions and directing,
This campaign?
Can't we find someone who is ethnic,
And experienced with diversity...
To best implement the reality,
That is desired to be conveyed?
Don't get me wrong,
The poster is great.
It screams with a believability.
But the need would be more advantageous...
If our efforts more reflected what's real on the streets.

Though this nation has proudly thought of itself as an ethnic melting pot, in things racial we have always been and continue to be, in too many ways, essentially a nation of cowards.

But this is the great danger America faces. That we will cease to be one nation and become instead a collection of interest groups: city against suburb, region against region, individual against individual. Each seeking to satisfy private wants.

Assimilation
We are all united as one.
That is our policy!
And with any assimilation,
Considered to be done...
It 'has' to be understood,
Those of different ethnic and cultural...
Expressions to invest,
To expose a pride and diversity...
Will be rejected!
Unless...
It is confessed,
That 'our' way of doing things...
Is accepted as expected!

One of the great strengths of the United States is... we have a very large Christian population - we do not consider ourselves a Christian nation or a Jewish nation or a Muslim nation. We consider ourselves a nation of citizens who are bound by ideals and a set of values.

Get Ethnic
(rap:)
Lying here in the sun just trying to get a tan
Trying to find a look to go with the plan
Everyones different
Everyones go their thing
Spinman give me a rhythm...swing, swing
You dont have to dance alone
You get on the floor and make yourself at home
Do anything you want to do
Its alright... its all up to you
(ethnic chorus):
It doesnt matter what skin youre in
Baby let the groove begin
Get ethnic...all day
Get ethnic...all night
gonna chill and ride the day out
People let me tell you what its all about
Get ethnic...all day
Get ethnic...all night long
(talk):
Walk my way!!!
Talk my way!!!
This is a new direction
Were gonna take it to the street
Spinman throw down a funky beat
Ooh sweet
Dont really care where you come from
You may move to a different drum
Jump right in and take you place
Were all part of the human race
(ethnic chorus):
Like you mama do
And your daddy too
Its an attitude
(ethnic chorus x 2):
Everybodys different
And we all have a song to sing
Spinman do your rhythm thing...swing...swing
Spinman do your rhythm thing...swing...swing
(ethnic chorus):
Cmon cmon baby
Smooth me out
Smooth me out
(chant fade).

All That Which is Around
Isn't that something,
Those believe.
A life that includes diversity,
They can do without.
And still succeed.
Even though diversity,
Is all that which is around.
There are those who choose to ignore it,
With a hope a tunneled vision.
Will become a way of life,
Mother Nature decides.
Is more beneficial to provide.
And those choosing their lives,
Without diversity to surround.
Would have a better quality of life.
If 'She' removed hers from the ground.
