    Perfect example of how racism is taught not something children are born with.
  • @eagle1ra79
    So you're telling me these 2 babies got more sense than most adults?
  • @flamezealous
    Aww; "We are twins, cos we share the same soul." God, that's made me tear-up instantly!!! So innocent, so sweet, so human!
  • @kuvitella8966
    “We share the same soul” Chills. Literal chills. That is the sweetest thing I have ever heard.
  • @MoviesMoveMe
    "We're twins b/c we have the same soul", immediately brought tears to my eyes. I love this so much, and so glad this was on the news to touch as many ppl (including myself) as possible. :)
  • @elenkorkmaz4075
    ''We're twins 'cos we share the same soul'' Damn children are magical innocent and genius creatures. They're smarter than the most of the adults.
  • “We’re twins because we share the same soul.” That even warmed my black heart.
  • @ZippedUpKitz
    "You don't know what you’re talking about. We share the same soul." Never has anything touched me so much in all the feels… that brought me to literal tears! I hope those little girls stay best friend twins for the rest of their lives and may the evils of society never come between them!
  • I love how they both look like their mothers, bless the open minded mothers who let them be. Children are the purest and the most valuable souls on the earth
  • @gelainarag1462
    “It will make her sad” comforting her sister with a tap on her chin...
  • @Lila-gd9ri
    If been "twins" makes them happy, who's anybody to go against it? I hope their friendship last a lifetime.
  • @joejoseph3078
    This actually did make me tear up. I hope those two girls (and their moms) have a long and happy life together and that nothing ever tears them apart.
  • @luvlylady55
    Out of the mouths of babies...these girls could teach adults a lesson... and what they said about the soul is the sweetest thing ive heard ..i pray that they keep their closeness as they grow and not let the world bring them down
  • @azphim
    Two little girls being cute The world: they are obviously trying to form an act against discrimination-
  • @AW-gh3yv
    Children arn't born with hate. Children are taught hate. I wish them all the best and hope they stay friends.
  • @pnkrckpri1
    Oh my gosh! That brought tears to my eyes. “We are twins because we have the same soul”…that got me!
  • That baby knew what she meant…they are soulmates. So loving and protective of each other.
