Its goal is \"to promote racial harmony and understanding.\" Although it is a Bahá'í sponsored day, it is a universal holiday that can be celebrated by anyone. Thus events in the United States are usually \"the product of local community initiatives\". Much like World Religions Day, which was also started by the Bahá'í National Assembly, the day has taken \"on a life of its own in the secular sphere.\"",
