God maketh no
distinction between the white and the black. If the hearts are pure both are
acceptable unto Him. God is no respecter of persons on account of either color
or race. All colors are acceptable unto Him, be they white, black, or yellow.
Inasmuch as all were created in the image of God, we must bring ourselves to
realize that all embody divine possibilities.
- ‘Abdu’l-Baha (Quoted by Shoghi
Effendi in ‘The Advent of Divine Justice’)
