TO DECLARE SUNDAY, JUNE 9, 2019, AS RACE AMITY DAY IN THE STATE OF SOUTH CAROLINA.
Whereas, South Carolina supports the Great Seal of the United States of America, which bears the inscription "E Pluribus Unum," translated from the Latin as "out of many, one"; and
Whereas, the State of South Carolina, like our nation, is comprised of multiethnic, multicultural, and multiracial citizens; and
Whereas, the greatest asset of the State of South Carolina is its people; and
Whereas, friendship, collegiality, civility, respect, and kindness are commonly shared ideals of the collective citizenry of the State of South Carolina; and
Whereas, it is entirely appropriate that the people of South Carolina should join in reflection on the beauty and richness of the diverse peoples of this great State and nation while reaching out with a spirit of amity toward one another. Now, therefore,
Be it resolved by the House of Representatives:
That the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives, by this resolution, declare Sunday, June 9, 2019, as Race Amity Day in the State of South Carolina.
