November 16 International Day for Tolerance
November 5, 2009 - 04:02 PM

November 16 marks the International Day for Tolerance and Taking It Global wants to hear from you! Have you witnessed acts of intolerance in your community? How have you made a difference in the battle against intolerance? In your opinion, what can we do to educate ourselves on the issue? Is tolerance 'teachable'? Tell us what you think.

Hi there, thank you for letting us know. Sadly, looking at the comments about gay rights and abortion, Tolerance is the last thing that the majority of posters want to know about.

Every time I see that disgusting wall in Palestine, I see a lack of tolerance. Likewise when I see a pick up truck filled with AK47 toting Hamas thugs I see a lack of tolerance.

We can but hope.

Don't know if this is what you are looking for, but:
When I was in 1st grade, my girlscout troop did this assignment/project where we had to wear two different, non-matching shoes to school. We actually did this on one of the first Internation Day of Tolerance I believe.

Looking back now I see that it did have a big impact on my thinking, eventhough I didn't see the significance at first.

On that day I went to school with my different shoes and I got laughed and pointed at, people asking me all day if I knew my shoes didn't match. It showed me how intolerant and cruel people can be about any diversity (even just different clothes) and how important it is to be tolerant.

For me it was a big lesson in tolerance. I think tolerance can be taught in many ways, but its something we develop everyday by being exposed to diversity and seeing/feeling for ourselves how hurtful intolerance can be.
