#ScienceUpFirst, Art Alongside: Diversity ‍ ‍ ‍ ‍

“We are not the same but we are all one, all the beauties of the world, power and love are in diversity.”

Diverse perspectives create a culture of respect and understanding. Elevating the voices of people from different backgrounds, communities, and walks of life isn’t just essential to creating a strong and just society, it also makes your messages better.

This piece was created by the incredible and inspiring Sara Barackzay in B.C.!

Sara Barackzay is an artist and illustrator born in Herat, Afghanistan during the first Taliban emirate. In 2019, President Ashraf Ghani asked Sara to open an animation school in Kabul, but threats and attacks forced Sara and her family to go into hiding. She arrived in Vancouver as a refugee in September 2021. She is currently Artist in Residence at Green College and is attending Vancouver Film School.
