This is... amazing.
If anyone is familiar with the amount of fail happening about the 'Avatar: The Last Airbender' movie you'll know exactly what this lady is talking about. It's true. Ignorance is a very rampant disease among the American people. Americans have suffered a desensitized t.v world where violence is entertainment, where one ethnic groups culture is anothers joke.

Small town and rural America is especially hit hard since most ethnic immigrants stick to large cities where there's lots of work, many people in the smaller towns have never had a very diverse culture.

I count myself lucky, I know so many different people from different backgrounds, I feel blessed. I'm not angry with people who just by the way they are raised, are ignorant. I pity them.

I AM disappointed in those who should know better, those who have been at the center stage of change for the past 70-60 years.

Hats off to you Hollywood, you just took a giant step backward.
