Sewing Social Worlds was created for an abundance of reasons. To focus on just one of those reasons for the purpose of explanation would be a mistake. The conglomeration of reasons to which I owe this creation is responsible for the name of the site as well as for the motivation I found to build this site and go forth with the entire project. A vast number of topics are discussed here because I want to build a community of knowledge, networks, associates, joint ventures and virtual course rooms. Some of the topics are quite controversial in nature and I give no apologies for this. Instead, I offer forums to discuss the controversy. I want to see these issues resolved; we do not want to argue or insult people or keep these issues in the closet, as they have been there for too long. You will find all topics on the right sidebar under "Schools of Thought" and "Business." This is not "just" a website to me, rather; this is a lifelong project so you will constantly and consistantly see new content. You will find many articles open for public view. Other articles may only be viewd by registered members. Other content will come in the form of essays and e_books that you have to purchase. I buy essays and e-Books as well and I encourage members to participate by writing articles. Members have the ability to post articles. I look forward to new networks and building relationships with you. We are in the knowledge business...let us learn what we know and then learn what we want to know. |

Mission Our mission is to ensure that people of all races and cultures are seen first as people, second as intelligent within their culture, and third...no less or more superior than others due to race, religion, culture, ethnicity, or number on the Binet-Simon scale of intelligence. Further, I am concerned with the definition and ideology of human rights. When a human rights advocate include only minorities when lobbying for human rights, the majority population then becomes the minority. It is my mission to balance the scale to ensure that equality is measured by the entire population rather than just a target population.PurposeThe purpose of this website is to increase the popularity of our common interests. We struggle on a daily basis living by and with people of different ethnic backgrounds. This is not a simple feat, in fact; many of us were not given the basic tools to understand these people who are alien to us. Another purpose for this community is to discuss many of our real issues so that we can plan for our future and the future of our children. We may never agree on our differences, however; we should try to understand them while embracing our similarities. |

I am in the beginning stage of this project and I am seeking people with similar interests to help reach specific goals. For instance, I am not only developing this site because of my interest in social justice and transformative learning, but; I am also focused on sharing and learning information from the many topics you see on the right side-bar. This entails a lot of hard work and building networks. Therefore, I see this as a lifelong project.This project entails developing a huge community based on knowledge, a university setting, forums to open dialogue about a multitude of issues, and eventually a small library to borrow books from as well as a small bookstore to purchase books. I am sure you realize that I am not capable of completing the tasks that would take many people to accomplish. Therefore, like-minded people will shine here!I am looking for Gurus, professionals, mentors, coaches, writers, researchers, students, teachers and professors.
