Dalmar Kenta Bahari shares his thoughts and experiences as part of 100 Voices: #AllAgainstRacism.

Dalmar Kenta Bahari,
Model

Humanity conforms to no time, ethnicity, or birthplace. In the face of urgent questions, it searches graciously for where meaning may lie. The struggles of oppression seem to fill in a confession of social frailness. In contrast, those seeking to understand other views, with full hearts, will now and forever love. This may be the measure of life. Allow life to be beautiful, in diversity, and it will be.
