Yes, that was the first thing I noticed too. They should really change that, it gives very little credibility to the rest of the video.

This is also from him: "I have given my life to try to alleviate the sufferings of Africa. There is something that all white men who have lived here like I must learn and know: that these individuals are a sub-race. They have neither the intellectual, mental, or emotional abilities to equate or to share equally with white men in any function of our civilization"....

..."I have given my life to try to bring them the advantages which our civilization must offer, but I have become well aware that we must retain this status: the superior and they the inferior. For whenever a white man seeks to live among them as their equals they will either destroy him or devour him. And they will destroy all of his work.

sorry meant to give thumbs up, unfortunately Dr Schweitzer was all too correct in his remarks on Africans...Robert E Lee had a similar sentiment, he said wherever the white man is, things improve, but it is just the opposite where blacks are....

I think that this music is not very suitable for this video. Since doctor Schweitzer was also a great organist, I think than Bach could be better than Strauss... but, a part from this, the video is nice!
Stagolee: it is true that Scheitzer was "officially" born in German, but if you read his biography he says that he dind't want to choice between beeing a German or a French: he felt both, and moreover considering his life I think that we can think he was a citizen of the world!
