A Summer's day along St.Kilda beach!
This year, the FFF+ monthly challenge of FOTF has changed from 'five images on the fifth' to 'freestyle on the fifth', where each month a member of the group chooses a theme and the image can be a single image, a collage or anything you like as long as it relates to the theme and is uploaded on the fifth of each month.
This month the theme of 'people' was chosen by Tricia.

Multiculturalism here is what politicians boast about on independence day and at pre-election speeches. Its what makes this country strong, gives it its diversity, and makes us who we are. Its our heritage as a nation. Our pride. Truth is, multiculturalism cuts both ways. Its the reason for our fears, remorse, resentment, spite and estrangement from each other. While some would share the same space and immerse in friendly banter others scrawl in blood a fundamentalist prophecy yet to be delivered. This is my Malaysia. That which promises to save us may be the death of us all.

"תהווה saw that all the people of the earth wanted to gather in one place, so תהווה said, 'Let Us confuse their uniform language,' and so, with the diversity of languages תהווה created, the peoples scattered around the earth." - Genesis 11
With all the diverse (Roman, Greek, Aramaic, Jewish, Egyptian, etc.) cultures & languages around them, a rabbi once taught his motley crew of disciples, "Judge not." - Matthew 7:1
"Let there be peace on earth...."
"Unity in Diversity." "All One."
"Stop racism & prejudice/pre-judging."
Just a few thoughts this scene, including the stop signal, evoked for me--and reminded me of Chuck Lorre's humorous card:

It was an interesting similarity between horns of that Venetian mask and cedars of that Persian Handicraft..

Australia is a beautifully diverse country! Even our bigot hate groups are multicultural. Here we have what appears to be a Spartan, an Anglo-Aussie and a Korean-Aussie all standing together "against the scourge of Islam that has overtaken Australia."

I saw these ladies proudly striding up the South Bank wearing the full Niqab and carrying ice cream cornets. I liked thae lady at the back who kept having a sneaky lick - all the other ice creams were untouched.
It made me smile.
