This began as a result of the film Schindler's List (Ark) and research I made. Today I visited again and was struck by the concern over the word "equality" absent from the Pledge of Allegiance. I am reminded of several churches, when I was a young boy in the 50's, that often sang "Jesus loves the little children all the children of the world...red and yellow, black and white, they are precious in his sight. " In lower Alabama few people in that town ever truly considered the meaning, sang boldly and were oblivious to the irony...there were still KKK signs at the outskirts of town. I'm not sure adding the word will resolve much in the depth of this issue. Your website with video clip may offer more. Thank you! Martin,

(and shared it on FaceBook) I was astonished that I spent my life reciting the Pledge of Allegiance and never realized that the word "equality" was not listed along with "liberty and justice for all". Perhaps we were not ready for it 'way back when'--but I think we have come far enough in our understanding and growth as a nation to be ready to add that extra word to the pledge now! Thank you for this information. This is a very interesting article about the origins of the Pledge of Allegiance–I recommend it to everyone! (and shared it on FaceBook)

It makes me feel good just to hear the word, especially in these difficult, violent times. Yes, I’m all for adding the word “equality” to the pledge.

The explicit inclusion of 'equality' is long past due. One would think concept of equality to be understood as inherent to both the U.S. Constitution and the Declaration of Independence. Sadly, that is not the case. Perhaps by including the word in written form and constant repetition, future generations will actively embrace equality and not leave it an obscure concept.
