#14- Why do white people have black spots

The most memorable part from this video clip was the perspective that it was told from and how we were able to understand what children in africa are thinking, rather than us canadians, assuming. All of the kids in the video were very intelligent and the fact that they could speak two languages, one including my own language, is remarkable.

In my opinion, wester society is forcing their beliefs on developing countries and I dont feel that it is the greatest thing to do. I support what organizations do for developing countries (building schools and enforcing education) but I do not feel comfortable with the changes that are occuring because the kids in this video, for example, have so many questions and do not have an understanding of what if happening to their lives.

This was an excellent video and it really made you think from a different perspective and how these kids are true intellectuals and that is a remarkable thing.
