“Prejudice is not a failing peculiar to one race, it can and does exist in people of every race and ethnic background. It takes individual effort to root it out of one's heart. In my case my father and mother saw that it never got a start. I shall be forever grateful to them.
— Ronald Reagan
40th President of the United States
As quoted in "Ronald Reagan and Race" (August 2019), by Jay Nordlinger, National Review
