SOLIDARITY
•Solidarity is about regarding our
fellow human beings justly and
respecting who they are as
persons.
SOLIDARITY
•A person is in connection with
other people, with the society,
and with the environment.
SOLIDARITY
•A person has to relate
responsibility and act in solidarity
with others and the whole
humanity.
ANDREW MASON
• A community not simply as assemblage of
people brought together by their common
experience, practice, and shared values, but
also as a collective body bonded together by
solidarity.-
(RELIGIOUS
PERSPECTIVE)
•Solidarity is about treasuring our
fellow human beings and
regarding who they are as people
of God
ST. JOHN PAUL II
•“Building a Community that empowers
everyone to attain their full potential
through each of us respecting each other’s
dignity, rights, and responsibilities.”
•SOLIDARITY IS
MORE THAN A
UNION.
•Solidarity is about more than
Unions.
•Its about working with people on
the things that matter to them.
• It is about removing the boundaries that
prevent us from working together.
• It is about believing that what hurts my
neighbor also hurts myself, that when I need a
neighbor I have no right to expect help if I have
not first helped others.
•It is both an emotion and a
goal, a process and a state of
being.
•SOLIDARITY IS
DEFYING
BOUNDARIES.
•These boundaries that get in the
way can be race, nation, gender,
wealth, indeed anything upon
which segregation can be created.
•First, that people on one side
cannot experience the privileges
that are largely arbitrarily
awarded to people on the other
side.
• Second, that those on the latter side cannot
appreciate on the first side, and therefore feel
they are justified in their current position.
• Third, it creates resentment, often both ways.
•SOLIDARITY IS
FROM
COMMUNICATION
TO ACTION.
• Solidarity can flow from communication, but it
requires action to become a real and present
force.
• Without Solidarity, without considering the
needs of the other, creating a more civilized
world will be a challenge.
