    It's always a good idea to hear what the environment was like then and how it has affected the present to give a presentation of a realistic approach to expectations of the future on race relations. My first encounter of racism was 10 years ago and this is my first encounter of in-yo-face racism on a mass scale and I found this video to be grounding. Thanks for sharing
