"It may be shocking to some people in this country to realize that, without meaning to do so, they hold views in common with Hitler when they preach discrimination against other religious, racial or economic groups"

- Henry A. Wallace

About this Quote

This quote by Henry A. Wallace is a cautioning to people in the United States that they may be unconsciously holding views comparable to those of Adolf Hitler. Wallace is recommending that individuals might be discriminating against other religious, racial, or financial groups without even understanding it. This is a suggestion that discrimination of any kind is wrong and ought to not be endured. It is essential to acknowledge that everyone is equal and should be treated with respect and dignity. Wallace's quote works as a pointer that we ought to understand our own beliefs and actions and make certain that we are not unintentionally victimizing others. We should strive to produce a society that is without bias and discrimination.
