Returning awards or protest marches won't change a thing. What needs to change are mind sets. And that won't be changing in our lifetime.
Intolerance has existed from the inception of humankind; sensibility remains in finding a pathway and keep walking. Mudslinging is entirely impuissant.
If people spew hatred, they are merely making a spectacle of their inner turmoil. It is fear that makes people react irrationally. Let them.
Pay attention to the positive in the negative, and like I aforementioned, find a middle path and keep walking. Shut your ears while at it.
Keep in mind that you can reason with those who are reasonable. Arguing with fools will leave the world confused about who is a bigger fool.
