One way to learn and educate ourselves is to read books and watch movies. Visual Art is an effective way to communicate to the people and move and inspire people to change for the better.
Afterward, tough conversations need to happen. If people are kind to one another that would be the first step. There are lots of hurting people out there so give people lots of grace, you don't know what people have been through, you don't know their stories.
And take active steps to change the way we think and act by understanding from someone else's perspective. It's time to listen to one another.
The realization God made you and others in life together in happiness and harmony. We have to look past the color of the skin, different languages, and different cultures. And start seeing people through God's lens.
And God in his power and love wants to equip us to build and keep harmony, even amid our brokenness.
1 Peter 3:8-9 NLT
8 Finally, all of you should be of one mind. Sympathize with each other. Love each other as brothers and sisters. Be tenderhearted, and keep a humble attitude. 9 Don’t repay evil for evil. Don’t retaliate with insults when people insult you. Instead, pay them back with a blessing. That is what God has called you to do, and he will grant you his blessing.
