Building Race Unity

Bahá’ís consider it a duty to help humanity to come together as one family. The spiritual teachings of the Bahá’í Faith inspire us to reach out across ethnic and class barriers to form deep and diverse relationships and to build communities that nurture the well-being of all people. The tools Bahá’ís and their friends and neighbors use to build this distinctive community life seem deceptively simple. They are, in reality, profound and revolutionary. There are at present four core activities, all of which have spiritual underpinnings. They create space and opportunity for people to have important, meaningful—and sometimes challenging—conversations that can lead to reconciliation and growth.

No ethnic or cultural grouping is superior to another. All receive God’s love in equal measure. ‘Abdu’l-Bahá said: “God is the Shepherd of all and we are His flock. There are not many races. There is only one race.”
