"I had the privilege to experience your Diversity Seminar last night at St. Paul's Methodist Church. I applaud your intelligence, your respectful sensitivity, your honesty, your quiet spirituality, your pursuit of sharing the importance of understanding and acceptance of all God's kids. Our state, our country, the world are in a deep need of stepping out of our selfish, fearful, small boxes of ignorance of others not like us. I appreciate your willingness, your courage, your gift of sharing from the heart with humor, your inspiring journey of growth, inĘthe powerful, healing message you present. Thank you for being an instrument of love and light. God bless you and the beautiful work you are doing.

"Eddie Moore is dynamic, intelligent and makes the content concrete enough that all participants can relate, understand and be inspired to become change agents in this journey."
–Southwestern NCORE Conference 2000
"It is truly amazing how Mr. Moore's presentation affected students and adults (namely myself)! I went to the speaker with a preconceived idea about what we would hear based on the flyer we received about Eddie. I was afraid the students would come away with a less than positive experience. BUT... that was certainly not the case! The students (my juniors -- some are very prejudiced!) as well as others through the day had nothing but positive comments to make. They loved his use of slang, the camera, his clothes... The small group sessions were very well received..."
