Science, for hundreds of years, has spanned the differences between cultures and between countries.
There's always some difference between your Latino and African-American communities. But we definitely have more similarities than differences.
The differences between people need not act as barriers that wound, harm and drive us apart. Rather, these very differences among cultures and civilizations should be valued as manifestations of the richness of our shared creativity.
The World Bank adjusts its poverty estimates for differences in prices across countries, but it ignores differences in needs.
