In this talk, the second part of a presentation titled "Race Unity: Advancing the Conversation", Tod Ewing and Ken Bowers explore some guidance from the National Spiritual Assembly of the Baha'is of the United States and the Universal House of Justice. They examine how we can contribute to race amity and engage with the elimination of prejudice within the current framework for action, public discourse, and social action. They discuss how we can address racism and prejudice within ourselves, within our Baha'i communities, and within the greater community.
