The World is Better When We are Color Blind

I get annoyed with T-shirts and bumper stickers that say...Fill in the Blank Lives Matter.

Black, white, police, baby, you name it...ALL LIVES MATTER.

If only we all felt the same way, if only we as a people loved better...the world would be transformed.

These kids here...they get it. It doesn't matter how you look. Let's just play!

I so totally agree with you. Children are awesome as they don't see differences - the are taught to hate.

Fantastic photo, Amanda, of children having fun...Today's world is extremely complicated when it comes to the ability of loving each other no matter the circumstance.

Great harmony. Shame that we teach them intolerance as they grow up. "They have to be carefully taught" - line from the film "South Pacific"

[Simply Amanda]

@tonydebont I love South Pacific!!! Yes, Tony. Thank you!

[Thom Mitchell]

Exactly so, Amanda!

[Taffy]

Lovely!

Looks like they are having a fun day! Wet n Wild time together. Kids aren't picky...prejudice is taught.

To tell you the truth, I believe for the most part most people do want to or try to be all inclusive. The problem is that the trouble makers are the ones the media gives all the attention to. For instance, last night my wife and I went to a concert at Buhl Park. An African-American band called, "Four Kings and a Queen" performed. The audience was made up of primarily of Caucasian people that really got into their music and showed their appreciation for the band's talents. This was the first concert we went to were numerous people were dancing, clapping and just having a good time together.
Love you image and your message! FAV!

[Kathy A]

Great message and very true

[Simply Amanda]

@skipt07 Thanks so much, Skip! Your concert looked and sounded like fun!! Love those fun summer time events.

I really don't think kids ever see differences. It's the influences of parents that can highlight them which is such a shame. I wish everybody embraced everyone else in life and we all got along. Wonderful shot of children at play xx
