and last updated

Calvin Roberson is a two year old with autism in Bakersfield, CA.  His mother Amber says he has a wonderful outlook at life.  She says he doesn't see color or race when he sees others around him.   "We're all human mommy, all colors," Calvin says. 23ABC's Adam Bowles has this inspirational story.

Amber says this is something all of us should hear.  "We should all hear this.  This comes out of our babies."  She filmed him speaking these inspiring words that came naturally out of her young son.

 Calvin does embrace who he is as well.  "I'm proud to be black,and Mexican.  I'm handsome!"

But this 2-year-old wants all of us to learn these very important lessons.

"We're all the same," Calvin says.  "You have to be nice to everybody.  Remember, God doesn't like ugly."
