The worst feeling in the world!
Nine years old and he can’t play with the
gang! His parents say two or three of the
boys are different and he shouldn’t associ
ate with them.
What do they mean, different? He re
members that only a few days ago his his
tory teacher told him that all Americans
are equal—all citizens of one country and
all working together.
This kid judges the rest of the gang by
their individual personality, character and
how they pluy ball—not by their race or
religion.
Each race, each religion, contributes its
own talents, culture and idealism to pro
duce that amazing blend of ideas and vigor
which have made America great. This boy
wants to be proud of his country ... not
ashamed of it—and he can be if we don’t
influence him to the contrary!
Make sure that you are not spreading
rumors against a race or a religion. Speak
up, wherever you are, against prejudice,
and work for better understanding. Re
member that’s what it means—to be a good
American citizen.
