FOR THE LOVE OF CHILDREN

JILL AARON

Rogers And Hammerstein's South Pacific includes a song that was quite controversial when the musical first opened on Broadway in 1949. Questioned about the basis of racial prejudice, US Navy Lieutenant Cable responds by singing:

You've got to be taught
To hate and fear, ...
It's got to be drummed
In your dear little ear,
You've got to be carefully taught.
