Us vs. Them

I am so sick and tired of this "us vs. them" mentality. Whites and blacks. Christians and Jews and Muslims. Rich and poor. Republicans and Democrats. Americans and everyone else.

When will we stop shouting at each other's differences for just a moment to realize we are all in this together?? We are ONE people. We are ONE race. We are ONE world.

Do you know who suffers from all this strife? THE CHILDREN. The innocent, hungry for life, beautiful children. They deserve better than this. They deserve role models. They deserve messages of unity and welcome. They deserve the opportunity to dream bigger than the generation before.

DAMNIT. I really want to believe in us ... all of us.
