The problem that I see is that the extreme polarization we experience today is simply creating new racists. The video clip bears evidence to that, but where are the chants for true brotherhood and equality -- from either side of the obvious and apparently increasing racial divide.

A hundred years ago it was the Irish on the East Coast who were reviled, and the Chinese on the West Coast. What group will it be a hundred years hence?

I do see many bi-racial couples, which in the Fifties was almost unheard of, so the situation is improving. I think it could be speeded, though, if the most vociferous "leaders" of all groups would simply queit down for a while and let we individual humans sort it out...
