Racism I believe is something totally different today than what it was when it originally sprung.
If someone doesn't like what a country is doing, we don't just dislike the people in charge, we dislike the people as a whole. And that fits in with so many situations today.
It's also like many people look down on people just because they're mexican or african american, or white, or asian or whatever. Just because of how many of those types of people are poor, or rich, or famous. I've heard of people claim that rap wouldn't be around if it weren't for those african americans (I've obviously taken out the abusive languages used in these quotes). but...hello? Eminem? God knows who else.
People need to get over it. Science has already categorized us as human beings. We're all different. But just because we're different because we reason, why do we have to reason that we're different?
I'm not just reffering to Races like caucasion and asian.
I'm talking about Judaism and Muslim, Christianity and Catholicism.
I'm talking about Emos, Goths, Gangstas, Jocks, Preps, etc.
People don't know how to understand or relate to other people so if they're upset it makes them emo?
Girls can be girly and like pretty pink flowers and unicorns and be cheerleaders, that makes them preps?
People like all black clothes or dark hair, or hair in the face, that makes them goth?
No...the above three are all human thank you.
Racism/Prejudism/Sexis is wrong. (I just threw that one in there cus it ties in with it) It causes low self-esteem to people and two people I know at my school in the last year or two have committed suicide because of it.
I know I can handle it, and I respect people's opinion on toughening up. That's fine for those of us that can, but some people can't. Consider their background and lifestyle. You laugh at a homeless african-american. But maybe it's better that they left their house to live on the streets because someone's trying to kill them, burn their house down, or because that person has experienced abuse in their family?
Ekwee has a strong point, however. It's not going to go away, so get over it.
