Children Against Racism

We meet the Los Angeles kids fighting bigotry – starting with their parents

Meet the kids fighting bigotry – starting with their parents. We visit an integrated school in Los Angeles, United States, where 80 different languages are spoken, and many different ethnic groups learn happily side by side. The same can't be said for the town's adults. But these school children have had enough of their mums' and dads' racial stereotyping, and want to teach them how to live alongside each other in peace and harmony.
Also on the show, we speak to the boys pressured into vandalism; and discover why young people can’t get enough of the sweet stuff: sugar.
