Frankly this video is a good example of american provincialism. Those who speak have been deprived of real information and analysis for so long that they are stuck in obsolete stereotypes that may make them feel "comfortable", but prevent them from even thinking about real problems and are damaging to their own future and that of our country.
I consider that the issue of "racism" in this election is typical of how "leaders" create phony issues to augment their own personal power and profit. Basically this depends on "tribalism" and under the influence of corrupt politicians, the US seems to be as susceptible to this as anywhere else in the world.

At the height of the war in the Balkans, I had a dear friend in Belgrade who in his small appartment had friends and family as refugees that were orthodox serbs, catholic croatians and moslem bosnians. All of them got along fine. It is corrupt leaders that create the "tribal divisions" - we have too many such corrupt polticians in the US trying to use "tribalism" for their own gain.

You say that it's American provincialism, but you also say that the US is as susceptible as anywhere else in the world.
Isn't that the truth, that people are people, and people from all countries and all religions and all backgrounds discriminate for all kinds of irrational reasons.
