"The United States, perhaps one of the most racist countries in the world, loves to make-believe that all sorts of other people are full of blind hatred and racism-at least when it’s politically expedient. But people here are more discerning. Regularly they tell me that governments are different from people or that I come from a beautiful country. When I give them the disbelieving look, 'Well. I saw the nature on TV.'"
