Anti-racism sing-a-long

The 1958 film version "South Pacific" deals, in part, with romantic relations involving race. Of course, there were the well-known songs by Rodgers & Hammerstein like "There Is Nothing Like A Dame" and "Happy Talk", but there was one called "You've got to be carefully taught".

"You've got to be taught
To hate and fear,
You've got to be taught
From year to year,
It's got to be drummed
In your dear little ear
You've got to be carefully taught.

You've got to be taught to be afraid
Of people whose eyes are oddly made,
And people whose skin is a diff'rent shade,
You've got to be carefully taught.

You've got to be taught before it's too late,
Before you are six or seven or eight,
To hate all the people your relatives hate,
You've got to be carefully taught!"
