RADIO PROGRAM NO. 225 — Removing the Barriers Which Divide Men

Questioner: Quite a bit has been done in integrating schools and opening up jobs for minority groups. Frankly, a lot of these activities seem to be mostly on the surface. With all the fears and the misunderstandings that remain in the world today, I wonder whether it's realistic to expect anything more.

Speaker: Oh, yes. I think we can expect to penetrate to the very heart of the problems that divide men, though I agree that many of the barriers that separate people still remain.

But aren't these barriers based on fear and uncertainty of what people think may happen if they drop their prejudices? Sometimes these fears are pretty deep-seated, and it takes a real, penetrating change of heart to remove them.
