So well stated. The outcome of so many encounters I've experienced or witnessed has been really bittersweet and joyful. And many magnificent stories of adventure, love, magic and beauty that would bring us all so much closer together as humans are left out.

I was so pleased to see in the past few years descendants of Africans demand and are now recognized in their census as Afro-Mexican-Peruvian-Argentinian, et cetera, after so many years of the whiteout.

I'm glad you loved the video. Thank You
