Diversity Day
Mr. Brown:Now, this is a simple acronym. HERO. Uh, at Diversity Today, we believe it is very easy to be a HERO. All you need are honesty, empathy, respect and open-mindedness.
Dwight:Excuse me, I'm sorry, but that's not all it takes to be a hero.
Mr. Brown:Oh, great. Well, what is a hero to you?
Dwight:A hero kills people, people that wish him harm.
Mr. Brown:OK.
Dwight:A hero is part-human and part-supernatural. A hero is born out of a childhood trauma, or out of a disaster that must be avenged.
Mr. Brown:Ok, you're thinking of a superhero.
Dwight:We all have a hero in our heart.
Mr. Brown:Now, I need you to take these forms. This kind of expresses the joint experience we had today. And I need you to look 'em over and sign them as kind of a group pledge.
Michael:[Clears throat] I don't think I can sign this.
Mr. Brown:I can't leave until you do.
Michael:Well, OK, it says here that I learned something and I knew all this stuff already, so... I know, I could sign something that says that I taught something, or that I helped you teach something, so... Pam! Where is she? Pam, could we change something on this?
Mr. Brown:Michael, can I talk to you candidly?
Michael:Sure.
