This is a photo of a Caucasian American and an Indian engage each other at an international school. The heart-warming interaction between these two children from different parts of the globe is a ray of hope in a world plagued by racial prejudice.

Scenes like this are common in international schools, in which children of all different ethnicities mingle together. They are environments where it is normal for Germans play with Koreans and Indians to exchange jokes with the Japanese.

This photograph embodies what the future should be like: a globalised world in which ethnicity is no longer an unfair advantage or disadvantage to get further in life, and nothing more than a difference in skin pigment.
