Aww geez Tom that made me cry. Thanks for sharing it.

YES!!!

Truly touching . . .

Wonderful young people though complex issues will not, of course, be dealt with so easily. Thanks for posting it, truly touching as others have said. I think I would say “understanding” is needed, if not love.

Very nice.
And as an aside, I love the “Generation Y Not” – young people often get such a bad rap by their elders (even on this forum!) Usually because they’re reacting to and trying to deal with the ugly world we created for them.

Thank you for posting this - it’s wonderful. And I agree about young people, katliamom.

I actually think this video gets to the root of a major aspect of the problem - the fear of the “other” which is behind the unfortunately widespread belief that all Muslims are terrorists.

Would this be a good strategy to increase your chances for a hookup tonight?

Or not?

It appears these 3 are roommates. There is nothing like actual, real experience with people to defend against “fear of the “other” which is behind the unfortunately widespread belief that all Muslims are terrorists.”

It’s hard to see a group of people as a faceless mass to fear or hate when you have people from the group in your life that you know and love (or don’t necessarily love, but know and understand to be “regular people”).
