CHAPTER 12DIVERSITY AGREEMENTS

After the first few months of deadly trench warfare during World War I,Christmas Day, 1914, dawned bright and cold, freezing the sea of mudbetween the enemies. Allied and Axis soldiers spilled out of the trenches andspontaneously gathered in the middle of No-Man’s-Land, exchanging gifts,playing soccer, and rediscovering their common humanity. Reacting in horrorat the implications of such behavior, the generals forbade further fraternizationunder the threat of death. And so the war continued. But for one momentin the midst of all that anger, hatred, and violence a new force emerged.A strange attractor—love—took over and transformed reality.

—David La Chapelle, Navigating the Tides of Change
