Racism
is intellectually clumsy and depends upon an unbalanced worldview.
The
only way to deem an entire people inferior is to be (willfully) unaware of
their accomplishments, like viewing The Grand Canyon through a paper towel roll.
Tribalism
is natural, but diversity is no more unnatural than the combustion engines and
computer networks that compel us to mix.
And
since the world has gotten too small to segregate, we either learn to move
forward in step, or we trip fatally over one another, tilling the soil for our
replacement.
