⭐ Core Definition: Unity in diversity

Unity in diversity is used as an expression of harmony and unity between dissimilar individuals or groups. It is a concept of "unity without uniformity and diversity without fragmentation" that shifts focus from unity based on a mere tolerance of physical, cultural, linguistic, social, religious, political, ideological and/or psychological differences towards a more complex unity based on an understanding that difference enriches human interactions. The idea and related phrase is very old and dates back to ancient times in both Western and Eastern Old World cultures. It has applications in many fields, including ecology, cosmology, philosophy, religion and politics.

Unity in diversity in the context of Baháʼí Faith and the unity of humanity

Unity of humanity is one of the central teachings of the Baháʼí Faith. The Baháʼí teachings state that since all humans have been created in the image of God, God does not make any distinction between people regardless of race or colour. Thus, because all humans have been created equal, they all require equal opportunities and treatment. Thus the Baháʼí view promotes the unity of humanity, and that people's vision should be world-embracing and that people should love the whole world rather than just their nation. The teaching, however, does not equate unity with uniformity, but instead the Baháʼí writings advocate for the principle of unity in diversity where the variety in the human race is valued.

Unity in diversity in the context of Dangerous (Michael Jackson album)

Dangerous is the eighth studio album by American singer-songwriter Michael Jackson. It was first released by Epic Records on November 21, 1991, more than four years after Jackson's previous album, Bad (1987). Jackson departed from longtime collaborator Quincy Jones, instead co-producing the album with Bill Bottrell, Teddy Riley, and Bruce Swedien. Guest appearances include Heavy D, Princess Stéphanie of Monaco, Slash and Wreckx-n-Effect. The album incorporates new jack swing, a popular genre at the time, pop and R&B. Jackson wrote or co-wrote 12 of the album's 14 songs, centered on topics like lust, unity, social issues, and self-improvement.

Dangerous is considered an artistic change for Jackson, with his music focusing on more socially conscious material and spanning a broader range of sounds and styles, including underground sounds to a mainstream audience. The album features hip hop, industrial, funk, electronic, gospel, classical, and rock. Nine singles from the album premiered between November 1991 and December 1993, including one exclusively released outside North America ("Give In to Me"). Jackson embarked on the Dangerous World Tour, which grossed $100 million.
