Racism Issues and Perspective
I watched the movie Crash this weekend. The story examines the different sides and varying degrees of many different racial backgrounds. The story was gritty and intriguing.
America is an experiment. The first truly multi-cultural experiment in history. History shows us countless examples of multi-cultural societies as a result of war and colonialism. Where is one that was founded purposefully on the basis of ‘All men are created equal’? Even though the phrase ‘All men’ has evolved significantly in the last 150 years, the beauty our founding fathers installed in our constitution was the ability to grow.
Crash shows us we still have a lot of growth to embrace.
