South African Constitution

South Africa Constitution: "The state may not unfairly discriminate directly or indirectly against anyone on one or more grounds, including race, gender, sex, pregnancy, marital status, ethnic or social origin, colour, sexual orientation, age, disability, religion, conscience, belief, culture, language and birth. "

It's nice to see that a country that was so damaged and divided by discrimination has included in its constitution equality for everyone, not just based on race. I think the United States could use South Africa as an excellent example of tolerance.
