Hu: The Human Element

Has anyone seen the commercials that talk about the Human Element? I feel like those commercials are so relevant, because in this class we talk so much about all these different people and how we feel towards them, but sometimes I think "Whoa, people do that?" I think of how a human can have so many different faces, and there are so many different races is there any other species on the planet with such variation? It’s no wonder we all come into conflict or have opposing viewpoints. But I guess as the world shrinks and we are forced into closer quarters with one another then we will have to learn to just accept the beauty that is diversity. Is there any other way?
