i think it's a double-edged sword. on one hand, with television essentially turning a mirror onto our own behavior has opened many eyes. other technological advances seem to dumben us into a sense of entitelement. i believe that every racist isn't a white hood-wearing, cross burning extremist, some are simply misinformed and their ignorance ends when they see real life experiences that disprove what they were conditioned to believe. at the same time, we do seem stuck in a rut of "fuck the starving countries, fuck the homeless people on the other side of town, the most important thing is that i get my 5 dollar coffees and brand new rims for my caddy and if i don't get either i'll cry that this is supposed to be the land of opportunity and privelege"
