Move the flag, problem solved, this according to all the talking heads and the South Carolina governor will stop all the racial prejudice problems.
WRONG, the answer to this on-going problem can be found in a song taken from the musical South Pacific. The song sung by the character in the play Lt. Cable is “YOU GOT TO BE CAREFULLY TAUGHT.”
Because of this song the road show version of the play was banned in most southern states unless this song was removed. Here is a few lines from this song, “You’ve got to be taught before it’s too late, before you are 6 or 7 or 8, to hate all the people your relatives hate, you’ve got to be carefully taught.”

There is much more, and maybe the South Carolina governor should look it up. Also, remember racism is not born in you, it happens after you are born.
