I can never understand how someone can harbor so much hate for another individual because of their skin color, their choice of religion, or sexual orientation, But you know what I don’t ever want to understand such ways of thinking because that would imply somehow I have rationalized and make sense of it. There is only one Race and that is the HUMAN RACE. My spirit is heavy to see this tension brewing in our society, how long will the color of our skins be the thing that continually divide us as children of this planet?
