Teaching Diversity and Inclusion Through Storytelling and the Arts

Here is the response to this exciting diversity program from a recent client: "Let me express my appreciation for Diversity in Motion performance at our Conference in Atlanta. Your diverse talents provided an entertaining Message with a wallop. Your improvisational skits relating to ideas from the audience showed true genius. The employees who attended the conference clearly resonated with your message of unity and caring among all people."
Betty Bland, President of The Theosophical Society in America Diversity in Motion is a unique storytelling and song diversity program for corporate events or school programs, highlighting the value of diversity in the world. The program encourages diversity, inclusion and high-performance teams, by breaking down barriers of separation.
Diversity in Motion moves its participants at the level of heart and soul while facilitating transformation on this deeper level through the telling of personal songs and stories. As we break down the barriers of habitual belief systems- those comprised of judgment and assumption, we are truly able to connect with understanding, respect, and compassion. Let us celebrate the richness that diversity brings to our world! The fact is- we can’t survive without it. Vivian Slade, Marquetta Dupree, and Angela Holley comprise the 3-member group.
