World Unity Inc. has unstoppable local, national and global initiatives promoting equality, diversity and inclusion.
The Sun poem was the focus of a TEDx Talk on Oct. 23rd at Jacksonville Fl. It is posted on YouTube: Uncover and Overcome Unconscious Biases Within Sara Ting.
In 2024 the Sun Poem has been promoted so far on 74 digital billboards in cities across the US to promote equality, diversity and inclusion by raising self-awareness through the poem and empower and inspire individuals through the arts, education and innovative ideas!
In 2021 we launched World Unity Inc.'s 5 Minute Leadership Dialogue. On the first day of each month we post an interview with a leader about life questions to enlighten, empower and inspire! Check out interviews that include Chair and CEO of U.S. News and World Report and, Chair and President of Eastern Bank.
We are looking for volunteers who resonate with the Sun Poem to:1) Staff our annual diversity and inclusion leadership gala, 2) Promote the Sun Poem through our TED Talk and PSA announcements, 3) Plant the seeds of equality through, "Singing Equality across America and around the World," 4) Look for dynamic leaders for World Unity Inc.'s 5 Minute Leadership Dialogue and 6) Present ideas to promote the Sun Poem.
If we don't plant our message now when there's a global outcry to eliminate racism, then when and if our generation does not do it then who will? We need committee members who believe in the power of words and music to transform the heart and mind to join us!

Mission Statement
World Unity, Inc. promotes equality, diversity, and inclusion by raising self-awareness through the Sun poem, and empowering individuals through the arts, education and innovative ideas. - Are you greater than the sun/ that shines on everyone: Black, Brown, Yellow, Red and White/ the sun does not discriminate (c) 1985 Sara Ting
Description
The Sun poem inspired the founding of World Unity Inc. in 1993, is the focus of a TED Talk in 2021 Check talk at worldunityinc.org
Laws, policies and technology cannot remove unconscious biases all humans have. The change must come from within. The Sun poem can ignite change. We seek to transform the world by raising self-awareness through the Sun poem, the arts, education and innovative ideas.
We follow Einstein's approach to solving problems. He said, "You cannot solve a problem with the same consciousness that created it. You must stand on a higher ground."
We continue with our initiatives: 1) Build the first landmark in the world promoting equality for all people 2) Singing Equality across America and around the World," planting the seeds of equality through a song. See video of 800 children sing the song and performing verse in sign language at worldunityinc.org 3) Public service campaign promoting equality for everyone 4) World Unity Inc.'s 5 Minute Leadership Dialogue.
Imagine if children in across the globe learned this song and it lived in their hearts the kind of world we could have!
We are looking for volunteers who love being creative, feel strongly about equality. resonate with the Sun Poem, want to help us promote initiatives it inspired to create a world that values all people, especially the children. They are depending on us. Please contact us at (617) 971-0317.
