"If you are encouraged to mix freely when you are young, your life will be far fuller and more colourful as you live through it and your values will be more naturally defined in your old age. Racism is not a characteristic one is born with; it is learned and reinforced through needless fear, misinformation, misunderstanding and bigotry. It is more natural to cooperate than it is to compete; more beneficially rewarding to share than to selfishly deprive. If innocent children can learn this without the imput of adults, surely adults have a responsibility never to teach them otherwise." William Forde : March 26th, 2014.
