An idea has floated around in the past that 
says we should be color blind. We shouldn’t 
notice the color of our skin,

2
00:00:14,100 --> 00:00:20,600
but we should treat each other the same. 
I want to counter that idea today. We shouldn’t 
be color blind;

3
00:00:20,700 --> 00:00:27,200
rather, we should embrace each other’s ethnicities. 
God intended us to work together as a whole;

4
00:00:27,300 --> 00:00:36,300
each race has abilities they bring to the 
table that better our community. When we 
ignore race or solely rely on negative stereotypes,

5
00:00:36,400 --> 00:00:46,600
we build our society upon a skewed foundation. 
On the other hand, when we embrace our race 
and focus on what we each bring to the table,

6
00:00:46,700 --> 00:00:55,300
we create a multicultural fabric of society 
that creates something beautiful. I’m Mac
