www.youtube.com/watch?v=hQ2TgbciPc4&feature=relatedThis young man has a moment where he finds the source of hatred in the Black community. What needs to be taught to ALL children is a basic respect for other human beings. This is the cornerstone of uniting all people, because we are all in this together. Once we are all able to see past the devices (race, pride, prejudice) that divide all humanity. I will attack the pride beast only because I feel the other two are dependant on it, and it alone. Pride should be for something that you have worked for and accomplished, not simply for something your were born into. "American", "Black", "rich" are not sources of pride, that comes with work. Even though "true respect" must be earned, basic respect may help you stay alive...and also remember, nobody owes you anything.
