LIFT EVERY VOICE CAMPAIGN: A MILLION VOICES RAISED AGAINST GLOBAL RACISM PSA (457 hits)

This PSA is the first promotional video for the Lift Every Voice Campaign: A Million Voices Raised Against Global Racism. This is a facebook group focused on raising public awareness about the pervasive racial discrimination people of African descent (and other dark complexioned folk) face in countries all over the globe. I invite you to raise your voice against this attempt to marginalize and devalue the contribution and role of people of African descent in the world community by joining our facebook campaign and discussion forum.
Thanks to John H. Legend, CEO of Soul Publishing, Ltd., for the music track.

Yeah. I understand you point of view The image of a little white girl is a powerful one in Asia (which is where I'm based). I looked for an Asian child holding multiracial dolls and couldn't find one. The little white girl was an acceptable option because it's one Asian will relate to =perhaps even better than an Asian child! I'm going to add subtitles to the PSA so it can be viewed in other languages. I think the final image may ultimately help us spread the message about our group faster because of the very "anti-black" attitudes we are trying to counter--that make folks refuse to support positive black images. I appreciate your comments.
