“From the things I’ve seen over the last six months to a year,” he said, “it seems that the intolerance of people against other people is growing and growing.”
“This has been going on for years,” he declared. “What we’re doing now is pulling back the veil.
“Nothing has changed,” he continued as he called for the public to recognize “that we are all one. Our DNA is the same: We’re human beings.”
Nowadays, he lamented, everyone is marshalling their own divisive store of power, “to figure out who’s on top. Well, I’ll tell you who’s on top: It’s always been that 1 percent that has looked down on everyone else and kept us fighting each other.

Haysbert’s series, “Incorporated,” premieres Nov. 30.
