The International Day for the Elimination of Racial Discrimination is observed annually on March 21st. Racial and ethnic discrimination occur on a daily basis, hindering progress for millions of people around the world. Racism and intolerance can take on various forms: from denying individuals the basic principles of equality to fueling ethnic hatred that may lead to genocide, all of which can destroy lives and fracture communities.

“Last Chance for Eden” is about nine men and women who intimately discuss racism and sexism in their personal and professional lives.
