Oh.

[GIGGLES]

I play my piano, and it sounds real good.

I play my favorite song.

[GIGGLES]

And you are a singer, and when we sing together--

Hi.

Hey, everybody can sing along.

Yeah.

Oh, we come together.

We come together.

Come together and we sing our song.

You like to bounce a ball all around.

We go up and down the street.

And then you pass it to me.

Now we're playing together.

It's a game that's hard to beat.

[ELMO GIGGLES]

Yeah.

That was good.

[INTERPOSING VOICES]

Hey, John.

You want to share a cookie?

Yeah.

Here you go.

Thank you, Cookie Monster.

Yeah.

Cookie.

Elmo wants to be an upstander to racism.

Yeah, me too.

But well, I don't know what to do.

I know it can be hard.

[SINGING] How do you know what to do when you hear someone

say "you're not good enough, go away"?

When someone is not let in because

of the color of their skin--

How do you know what to do?

Hey, Elmo, how would you feel if I

said I don't like you because I don't like the color red?

Elmo wouldn't care what you said because Elmo

is proud-- yeah-- to be red.

And Abby what if I said that I think you're better than Elmo

because you're pink?

I'd tell you that it's wrong to say my color makes

me better in any way.

And if anyone tried to make Elmo feel sad,

I'd tell them he's the best friend I ever had.

Thanks, Abby.

Elmo thinks if you're big or small the way

you look doesn't matter at all.

That's outstanding.

You're upstanding.

I'm upstanding.
