What we can do about the culture of hate (transcript)
Summary
Culture means cultivation or something that we grew or produced.
The speaker tells us that hating is our culture. We, humans, produce or are taught to hate.
We feel hateful and we think that there are hate and a problem there.
However, the problem is in our mind that thinking that we hate something.
We are not designed and not destined as human beings to hate. Hate Muslims, Mexicans for Americans or hate Chinese, Korean for Japanese are not our DNA.
We can change our thoughts that we hate something because we are the one who shapes that culture.
We, our side, have to change that thinking something is hate.
