I want to quote a yahoo member who answered my, "Are you racist?" question in this:
"Everyone has a homegrown misconception of another race with which they have minimal contact. That's what happens when you're raised in one culture with other cultures marginalized."
In order to eliminate these homegrown racial misconceptions you would have to increase contact with other races. So, do you think world peace can be obtained by total racial integration? That would mean no language barriers, a one language world. That would also mean no black colleges. City planning would have to designate a required number of representatives from each ethnic group living within neighborhoods, etc... All hate crimes punished with say, the death penalty regardless of degree of assault. You get the idea...
IF this could be done (and I know it is far fetched) do you think we would be one step closer to world peace?

I am sorry, "Dark Manifest" is the author of the above quote that I referenced.

First of all "818" has no clue about political correctness.
Secondly, this concept is admirable, but would take generations of strife to fulfill. The best way to begin would be through education. I like the one language world idea, that might be a good starting point.
You could seek out a number of people known world-wide for their compassion and lack of "racism" and try to simulate their learning environment in the next generations.
As far as the death penalty no matter the degree of assault. This seems harsh, but to reach a goal such as this harsh punishments and strict rules would have to be enforced in order to keep the peace. But, I understand the idea you are going for.
It is a nice idea. Everyone living together in perfect harmony...like that old Coca Cola commercial. I just think it will take decades if not centuries to get there.
IF this could be done, yes...we would be one step closer to world peace. It is too bad we having started this journey already.

"All hate crimes punished with say, the death penalty regardless of degree of assault." < This is what political correctness does to your brain.
