Don't Be a Sucker (1943)
common sense is not common even today

This spells it out, the case against racism and xenophobia. This short film is an excellent reminder, in clear language, about how we are all minorities. America is a melting pot, and we need reminded about that sometimes. Normally, I'm not a huge fan of old films, but this one drew me in with its clear message of tolerance. If we want others to be tolerant of us, we must be tolerant of them. I don't think the message is condescending, but it IS simple. It is so simple that some might feel a little put off by the message at the end. Yes, we are all minorities, even us white western European mutts that are lots and lots of generations Americans.
