Withstanding the Lie of Bigotry

I'm happy to find this blog too.

Any form of bigotry is wrong and some people are trying to address it by passing certain kinds of legislation. Although the legislation doesn't always address the immediate problems there is some attempt at doing the right thing.

What is not being addressed, however, is the hurt, humiliation and loss of self-esteem that bigotry causes. My husband and daughter have written a book that addresses this question.

You might want to check out their website: www.withstandingthelie.com or their blog: www.withstandingthelie.blogspot.com and see what you think.

If you have been hurt because of your religion, ethnic background, gender, age, race, sexual orientation, economic status, weight, height, complexion, physical ability, or other similar attributes, let's talk."
