Race is already one of the issues dominating this year's US presidential election, gaining prominence with the emergence of Barack Obama as a viable candidate for the country's first black president.

We The People follows two African-American teenagers in Washington DC who refuse to let racial stereotypes be an impediment to their dreams.

  • race is a social contruct

    skin color is a superficial difference that is used to separate the ignorant

    FIGHT RACISM AND DISCRIMINATION

  • I don't think that little girl is "trying to be white".....I think she's trying to be successful. Anyone who thinks that speaking & spelling functional English, getting somewhere in school "is white" is very sheltered.

    A child of colour who makes excuses for failure due to the level of melanin in their skin are fooling themselves. Too many, children fail: from all types of backgrounds....

    I've seen lots of white children fail: just read the trash posted in some of the commentary on YouTube.

    It's not like they asked for it. it's just stupid people that automatically think their poor and take pitty on them.

  • @starwarsgg

    wait.... u either used too many big words or said giberish. Can u explain what you said as if i were a kinder-gardener? Sorry I just didn't understand it. Try using commas (don't take it the wrong way.

  • @MaLillyBoogan

    I'm Latino and I'm not like that. Blacks aren't stupid, ugly and lazy as like u say, asians aren't nedy and wimpy, whites aren't that good looking. U say those sterotypes are true and well documented. they aren't.
