Bears are associated with love, nurture and protection. What if we received that same love and care?

The origin of the Teddy Bear comes from President Theodore Roosevelt. He was on a hunting trip and unable to locate a bear. So his assistants captured and tied a black bear to a willow tree and suggested he shoot it. Roosevelt refused to shoot the black bear because it was “unsportsmanlike”. Today society continues to depreciate the value of black people.
