when "us vs. them" becomes "we"

"Only as we love people in another culture can we begin to identify with them and see the truth they understand. As we make their truth our own, we become new people, formed from the synthesis of two cultures."
Adeney, Bernard T. 1995. Strange Virtues: Ethics in a Multicultural World. Downers Grove, IL: InterVarsity Press, p 73.
