Life's events challenge the way we view our future because we see what is happening and expect the outcome to end up horribly. All we see in today's society is what the media presents to us and that is that America is racist and if we don't do anything then our future will continue to be filled with racism and discrimination.

We can incorporate our own views of life into the way we choose to live by identifying what our morals are and then from there, use those morals to help dictate what we do and how we decide to function in society.

In order to interact with others to perceive the world differently we need to do so with an open mind and heart. Hatred toward somone or an idea acts as a  blinder, causing us to not fully listen wholeheartdely and ultimately dismissing their life experiences and ideas.

explanation:

the speech this question is referring to is president kennedy's special message to the congress on urgent national needs, may 25, 1961

kennedy responds in a very direct and concrete way to those thinking that communism is a positive system:

"yet their aggression is more often concealed than open. they have fired no missiles; and their troops are seldom seen. they send arms, agitators, aid, technicians and propaganda to every troubled area. but where fighting is required, it is usually done by others--by guerrillas striking at night, by assassins striking alone--assassins who have taken the lives of four thousand civil officers in the last twelve months in vietnam alone--by subversives and saboteurs and insurrectionists, who in some cases control whole areas inside of independent nations." (kennedy)

president kennedy presents communism as cowardly, as a hidden and treacherous weapon that strikes from the shadows like thieves, he represents the system as not even being capable of showing and open and overt attack or confrontation. to finish up the response, he expresses that the system attacks even a country's idependence and freedom.
