I Have Something to Tell You

If the world were just 100 people
There
would be: 57 Asians
21
Europeans
14
from North and South America
8 Africans
52
would be female
48
would be male
70
would be nonwhite,
30 white
59%
of the entire world's wealth
would belong to only 6 people
and
all 6 would be citizens
of the United States
80
would live in substandard housing
70
would be unable to read
50
would suffer from malnutrition
1
would be near death
1
would be near birth
Only
1 would have a college education
99
of them will not see this message,
because
only 1 would have a computer.
When one considers our world
from such a compressed perspective,
the
need for both acceptance,
and understanding becomes glaringly apparent.
