100% agree. What people believe is reflected in what they see and have repeatedly reinforced.
If they've seen someone live up to a stereotype once and then have others just talk to reinforce that same stereotype, they'll continue to believe because it's the only real exposure they have.
You'll never convince someone unless they see it with their own eyes, which is one of the major reasons that internet publications built to reinforce different stereotypes are such a problem.

For others who think that showing educational videos is going to change minds, think why you call some videos propaganda and others educational. Now try and think what the person you are trying to influence will think about your video. You'll see the problem quickly.
