"Children aren't born hating," Oprah says. "In every single instance, racism is something that is taught." Oprah considers the coming generation to be "the most color-blind in history," and offers hope that they could yet help the world realize Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s dream, demonstrating for humanity "how to judge people based on the content of their character and not the color of their skin." Watch as children from far and wide recite the words that could free us all.
