PHILIP'S BLOG: Pride — let's all be very nice, shall we?

Pride is a great thing. It's a confidence in who we are. But too much pride is an ugly thing. It becomes arrogance. Diversity and inclusion need to be held with a delicate balance. Unbalanced, inclusion becomes assimilation and colonisation. Diversity becomes coloured on the outside and monotone on the inside. Unbalanced, pride comes before a fall — someone else's fall. And that's nothing to be proud about.
