I grew up in a small town in Georgia in the 1950’s-60’s. Jim Crow was ever present with segregated restrooms, dining for whites only etc. My mom, a New Yorker with empathy and a social conscience taught my sister and me to see through this barrier and understand that all of this must and eventually would change. Now over a half century later, my observation is quite clear that while racism and bigotry are still alive in isolated cases (and not only in the South), this is nothing like what took place back then. What is far more alarming to me is seeing the crazed attacks I hear from people of influence attacking those of us who have chosen not to take a certain medical procedure. By refusing work, housing, entertainment, and even medical treatment because we reject a gene therapy which has been proven unsafe and ineffective, the dark forces behind this new apartheid are utilizing the lowest of low tactics (fear, anger, ignorance) to divide us all. This is far more dangerous than any racial chasm I’ve ever encountered.

The man is correct. Just watch young children playing at recess or at a playground. It's genuine.
