I have the deepest respect for those who rise above the bigotry of their families.

We can understand the historical reasons why many embrace hatred, while refusing to surrender to the ills of the past.

If you look, you can usually see the beauty in people. The problem is we sometimes don't look.

Racism is just one of several illnesses passed on to children by their parents.

Imagine hating a complete stranger because their skin tone is lighter or darker than yours.

Music can be a very effective weapon in the war against racism.

The prejudiced are easily manipulated.

As long as there is racial privilege, racism will never end.

The sad truth about bigotry is that most bigots either don't realize that they are bigots, or they convince themselves that their bigotry is perfectly justified.
