@Amitaruci1 I think that there's nothing wrong with social conditioning when the goal is to offset the negative social conditioning that can often take place in a person's life. A child that may otherwise be conditioned to think, for example, that blacks are inferior (within the child's household usually) can have that counteracted by a positive message like the one in this clip.

@TheatreGeek317 It's about being disenfranchised in any way, whether in the form of needing free school meals, being on welfare, having an abusive parent, or anything else that can make a child feel like he/she's less of a person. Sesame Street now is also good, but it needs less Elmo and more stuff like this.
It's awful that so many today would call this "class warfare" and believe children should suffer because of their parents' actions. Monsters, the lot of them.

@Charla1606 No, this is from 1971.
@hardnphirm87 we're asian, not "oriental." oriental refers to objects such as rugs. we're not rugs, thank you.

God bless Jessie. I am 47 years old and his words made me weep. A curse upon those who seek to white-wash the civil rights movement by saying that Jessie and those whom he marched with are outdated and need to be replaced by a newer version.
Much love to Jessie.
I am somebody.
