[Music]

[Applause]

thank you thank you

thank you thank you very much

[Laughter]

besides if people need help and you can

help them then you really ought to help

them no matter how you feel about them

personally we couldn't just stand there

besides you never really harmed any of

us

if you stop and think about it you're

probably not half as bad as you try to

make yourselves believe you are

well maybe you're right hey i know

you're right and that's it for me

now what can we do to make things up and

help you for a check hey hey i got it

how about for start as we um we help by

putting your ship back together

here

don't forget this

thanks

how did you get it wendy my grandmother

she had it all the time she said you'd

probably be back if you followed all the

right clues

i guess cynthia was right how do you

mean she said you'd probably be

expecting us you're right grandmother mr

cuffy

let you go away knowing that only the

right clues would bring you back to the

medallion

they felt that in order to protect it

they shouldn't volunteer anything

we know they were right

we have done the same thing

gee i'm so glad to hear you say that i

feel much better now but tell me how did

you finally put it all together i didn't

know it was in the village till today

that's just what we have to do

put the pieces together

it was in the diary all the time except

for the last clue which was on a page

that we got from tia rosa right but once

we got that and put them together go

ahead and show you guys

see

this is the last page in the diary

and this is the missing page with the

copy of sailor bill's map see how it

fits in the diary

the only clue that i will send is x

marks the beginning

and the end and that's how we knew to

come back here because sailor bill was

shipwrecked here in the beginning

and he came back here at the end of his

life

okay kids it's ready

and

thanks a lot yeah hey we're never gonna

forget you either yeah and we're we're

[Music]

wonder what our next adventure will be

[Music]

henry

[Music]

what do you want to know about yourself

[Music]

what do you want to know about yourself

[Applause]

[Music]

well i had a friend an american friend

in fact an american kid you lived inside

an american town you did what americans

did

if that sounds like you and it sounds

like me because we've all got a claim to

the name of this american place it's

full of all kinds of faces they're not

just stamped out the same well there's

not just one kind of american footprint

there isn't just one american smile

there isn't one american way to be

it's up to you it's a matter of style

sooner or later by playing footer

freedom some families came to stay

from some other places with all kinds of

faces to make all the american ways well

there's not just one town america

footprint there is just one american

style there isn't one american way to be

you've got your own way to crack a smile

while we're on the subject i'm here to

tell you that the united states of

america isn't the only country to use

this america handle now you may already

know how people on the continent of

europe sometimes call themselves

europeans instead of french or german or

swiss or whatever well the countries

over here on the north and south

american continents sometimes use the

name america in the same way whether

they're from canada or cuba or columbia

or uruguay or paraguay panama puerto

rico or peru venezuela guatemala

well there's not just one american

footprint there's not just one american

smile there's more than one american

place to be now don't forget alaska or

their white house so if you got a friend

and american friend then he does think

different than you

well don't let it fret you cause brother

i'll mention that together we can see it

all through

[Music]

[Music]

what do you want to do

[Music]

[Music]

with all the many different kinds of

people in the world

did you ever stop to ask yourself

do people who look different have

different kinds of blood

okay kids time to have your blood drawn

come on

[Music]

if you ever had your blood tested or if

you've skinned your knee or cut yourself

you know what color your blood is

well everybody has the same color and

kind of blood

but you might not think so to hear some

people talk

you've probably heard some of these

expressions

cheese of mixed blood

or he's got blue blood

or their family comes from old new

england blood

[Music]

so the word is used in some confusing

ways

the fact is that everybody's blood is

basically the same

all blood is red

and all blood is made up of the same

basic ingredients

the red color in everybody's blood comes

from red blood cells

these cells carry oxygen to all parts of

the body

[Music]

if you ever lost a lot of your blood in

an accident or because of sickness you

would need to have some of it replaced

you could get the blood from a male or a

female

their shade of skin color wouldn't

matter they could even be from a

different country

you could use anybody's blood as long as

it was the same blood type

there are four main types of blood

a

b

a b

and o

[Music]

these four basic blood types can be

found all over the world

among all kinds of people

you can also find different blood types

in your own family

[Music]

you inherit your blood type from one of

your parents or your grandparents

but the other members of your family

even your brothers and sisters can have

blood types different from yours

doctors have found that they can

transfer not only blood

but also skin

bones and vital organs from one person

to another regardless of nationality or

ethnic group

in africa the donated heart of a black

man was transplanted to the body of a

white man

in the united states a black american

has received a kidney transplant from a

white friend

so blood can be exchanged between

different kinds of people and so can

other parts of the body

and we all have one of the four basic

blood types

if we have all these things in common on

the inside of our bodies maybe we're not

as different as we might look on the

outside

[Music]

yourself

[Music]

what do you want to know

[Music]

[Applause]

suppose for a minute that the entire

world was suddenly

without color

it might be difficult to tell an apple

from an orange

all the flavors of ice cream would look

alike

and traffic lights could be very

confusing

but fortunately

color is everywhere

but fortunately color is everywhere

colors there to help us see

and to make seeing more fun

did you ever wonder if everybody else

sees color the way you do

well except for a few people who are

color blind

we all see the grass is green

dandelions is yellow the sky is blue

[Music]

but color is not just yellow green and

blue

color has meaning

people use color as a kind of language

for example

all over the world

you could be in paris peking or peoria

illinois

and everywhere red stands for stop

and green stands for go

and sometimes the same color can have

different meanings to different people

sometimes in movies and plays in this

country when an actor wears black he is

the villain

[Music]

and the actor in white is the good guy

[Music]

but there are other ways to look at it

in the asian art of aikido a black belt

stands for higher achievement than a

white belt

so

even though we all agree on what colors

look like

we don't always agree on what they mean

nowhere is this more of a problem than

when it comes to the color of humans

when people try to attach meaning to the

shades of human skin color

to say that one shade is better than

another well it just doesn't make sense

they might as well say they like the

light squares on a checkerboard better

than the dark squares

or the dark colored rocks are better

than light-colored rocks

without the one

you can't appreciate the other

all of us need all of us

for a colorful world

[Music]

are a people i'd like to introduce you
