Resolution of Respect
I pledge from this day forward to do my best to combat prejudice and to stop those who, because of
hate or ignorance, would hurt people or violate their civil rights. I will try at all times to be aware of
my own biases and seek to gain understanding of those I perceive as being different from myself.
I will speak out against all forms of prejudice and discrimination. I will reach out to support those
who are targets of hate. I will think about specific ways my community members can promote
respect for people and create a prejudice-free zone. I firmly believe that one person can make a
difference and that no person can be an “innocent” bystander when it comes to opposing hate.
I recognize that respecting individual dignity, achieving equality and promoting intergroup harmony
are the responsibilities of all people. By signing this pledge, I commit myself to creating a community
that is No Place for Hate®.

Resolución de Respeto
Yo me comprometo de hoy en adelante, a hacer todo lo posible para combatir el prejuicio y detener
a aquellos que por rezones de odio o ignorancia, le hagan daño, o le nieguen los derechos civiles a
alguien. Yo trataré en todo momento de estar consciente mis propios prejuicios. Además, trataré de
entender a aquellas personas que yo percibo como diferentes a mí. Yo trataré de enfrentar todo tipo
de prejuicio y discriminación. Yo trataré de alcanzar y respaldar a aquellas personas que son víctimas
del odio. Yo pensaré en formas específicas en las que los miembros de mi comunidad pueden promover
el respeto mutuo y crear una zona libre de prejuicios. Yo creo firmemente que una persona
puede hacer la diferencia y que nadie debe ser un testigo ˝inocente˝, cuando se trata de oponerse al
Imagine
odio. Yo reconozco que el respetar la dignidad individual, alcanzar la igualdad y promover la armonía
entre los diferentes grupos, es la responsabilidad de todos. Al firmar esta promesa, yo me comprometo
a producir un impacto positivo en mi comunidad.
