So you're a worthless white kid just like me. Please calm your rhetoric and start taking in other view points. Hopefully it will make you less embarassing.

Yeah, and I've been trying to tell him this for a while, I don't think he cares. You can't point fingers and yell at people and expect that to change anything. Understanding the opposition will help you persuade them much more. He should know this, he sells time shares. But on the larger scale that you were comparing it too, I'm not sure it's going to prevent a cultural shift. While it may not convince the parents that practice it, it will influence the children and over time it may become as taboo as racism.
