I am troubled by all the racism and violence in our society; there is still too much of it today. What troubles me is that so many young people, including college students, have come out for white supremacy. More and more incidents of racial violence on college campuses have occurred as a result of the white-supremacy form of thinking. We still have a long way to go. I try to keep hope alive. It is better to teach—and live—equality and love than it is to teach hatred. I would like to see everyone living together in peace, harmony, and love, not dwelling on the horrors of the past. It is time to move forward.
