RE: The greatest man you've never heard of

Great post! Thank you for taking the time. I believe that we all have natural and learned prejudice. The natural prejudice comes at birth in that we tend to trust people who look similar to our parents. We see this in the animal kingdom with "birds of a feather flock together". Baby birds see their parents feeding them and sheltering them so that is who they trust. The rest of our prejudice gathers on us like barnacles on sea creatures. My concern is the censorship trend we see to avoid discussing issues. There is also incredible arrogance to believe that your opinion is the only opinion anyone of value should have. One thing I know is that wisdom and arrogance cannot occupy the same mind at the same time.
