This is not the first time I've watched this video, but it continues to upset me hearing so many words that hurt shouted at each other throughout the video. Yet, it's fascinating to watch the eyes of each listener as they are attacked verbally. Just to watch each one sit and "take it" from the other person. You have to wonder what is going through each man's mind as they hear such vitriol and hate, wanting to respond, and yet listening to the "other side" and beginning to understand.
It really bothers me that people can’t see that racism is still prevalent just undercover. I live this truth every day of my life. To many assumptions and stereotypes based on the color of my skin rather than the “Content of my Character”.
