South African Anti-Apartheid revolutionary and Nobel Peace Prize winner Nelson Mandela shared this wisdom: "No one is born hating another person because of the color of his skin, or his background, or his religion. People must learn to hate, and if they can learn to hate, they can be taught to love, for love comes more naturally to the human heart than its opposite." To unlearn hate and to learn to love we have to make compassion a daily mediation in our lives. The one who paved the Sikh path, Guru Nanak Dev Ji describes living as a genuine Sikh a 'Game of Love'. It is about the love that the creator of this cosmos pours out over us, without limit, without condition, and the unconditional love that we should try to develop for it and its creation.

This photoshoot series was inspired by the Black Lives Matter movement which started in 2013. I am posing in front of Lincoln Memorial in Washington DC with a quote from award winning race scholar and author Ibram X. Kendi.
