Roger Ebert on the Arizona school mural

After read­ing about the racist brouhaha over a mural on the wall of an Ari­zona ele­men­tary school, Roger Ebert penned How do they get to be that way?

What I can­not imag­ine is what it would be like to be one of those peo­ple dri­ving past in their cars day after day and scream­ing hate­ful things out of the win­dow. How do you get to that place in your life? Were you raised as a racist, or become one on your own?
