Topic: Do you believe racism has come to stay!! ? - page 2. (Read 570 times)
Racism can be backed a long time ago, from the colonial era's. It has been a thing among humans to be racist against some sets of people. We have heard of many cases when black or Africans are treated as trash just because of their skin differences. In the ancient times, black people are treated as slaves amongst the white and their lifes had no value. Racism can result from, skin differences, religion, culture, languages, beliefs and many more.In the world today though racism has been lessened with the introduction of some human right activist and some other laws Against racism. Some countries or persons still practices racism. So I don't think racism will ever be a thing in the past. It goes on and on till the end of time.
There is no way racism can be abolished. Let us not deceive ourselves. People react to his people look, whether they are handicapped or of different colour or tribe like what happens in my country. You can not stop that. It has been there for ages. In today's world we also get to see that in sports too, with football fans chanting racist songs. Colour difference says alot. In my country those who are dark skin have a certain they react to albinos around them who are also blacks like them, and we want racism to stop at the world stage? It is not going to happen.
Not at all racism has come to stay alive today because every person is created by God equally and there is no concept of racism in ISLAM....
I really feel bad when I see some football players suffer racist abuse, like a player once said, "IF I SCORE AM HUMAN AND IF I DON'T AM A MONKEY THAT Eats BANANAS" that sunk me badly, our authorities must do everything possible to eradicate racism from our society, because racism is more dangerous than ethnicity so don't racially abuse anyone for any reason he is human too, black lives matters like the white lives matters too.
Latest some countries who think that that is the best option to do but I've not seen a racism I said something that come Tuesday it will be abolished because many people only like to return back to their country if their country develop the area so if all countries are equal or living very good nobody will like to travel to another country
The majority of American adults believe that more than 150 years after the 13th Amendment ended slavery in the country, the legacy of slavery still affects how black people are treated in modern American culture. According to a recent Pew Research Center study, more than four out of ten respondents believe that racial equality has not been sufficiently advanced in the country. There is also some doubt that black people will ever enjoy equal rights with white people.
Racism is not natural. It is a word formed by man to hate his fellow man. On thinking how to execute the hatred they tagged to colour and race. Why I said that racism is the creation of man is that, if a fair complexioned baby is born into a dark complexioned family. As they grow together, no one will hate each other because of color. Racism is taught and there are fanatics who always will remain racist for life.
There's no where in the world where you can see racism been allowed to be practiced by the people because it causes disunity among people and this is one of theeans that engenders crisis and discomfort among people, living peaceful is wjat should be our utmost concern with everyone that surrounded us regardless of their religion, colour or race, we must fight against himan segregation and differentiation which further birth what we now called racism.

Racial equality is undoubtedly a key factor and is considered an essential part of the country's development, which should be promoted.
However, if the people are not following racial equality, the government must take strict action to ensure the same.

Actually I noticed that in any place there is racism and it will always happened to a country who feels that their economic is very high so I believe that our country economy contribute almost 65% of differentiation of foreigners and the originator or origin of free country many country today not particular country or one country continue to partake in such racism depending what they are detecting 4 or 1 should be there reason of agitation 
Tribalism has been a characteristic of all hunting animals throughout history. Racism is just a form of tribalism, and it will never be eradicated.
It never really "came", it seem a natural instintc of humans to distrust whatever is different and somehow feel more affinity for those with similar looks and similar culture. It is also related to the ability to better interpret non-verbal communication of those similar to us. However, despite being natural, it does not mean that it is right and that we should accept it at all.
Now you are talking about why the divorce rate is so high. Marriage must be based on something other than trust. Maybe it's hormones. Do you think it's the same for racism?

.... It will just be a slow process and requires a change in attitude and teaching material.Interesting you mention change of attitude and teaching material.
Because I have heard and read that in the United States, for example, there is an ongoing debate or argument about the material which children should learn in schools about topics like slavery and the history of racism in the West.
Allegedly some people wants future generations not to be aware of the atrocities of the past. Since I am not live in USA, I can not be sure whether the things I have read are true or not.
People aren't equal!
There's no two people 100% alike, so how can there be equal people? The equality lies in the simple fact of being people... just being people, that's all.
Racism is fine. It's when somebody starts killing off people of other races that's bad. In other words, its e-racism that is bad.
Racism is fine? Are you being sarcastic or am I missing something?
Are you simply playing? Or did you forget to read the rest of what I said.
1. How many categories of people are there? One for every person. For example. You can't judge people by the color of their skin as being in one race or another. Why not? Because everybody's skin color is different from everybody else's, even though skin is similar in many ways. In other words, every person is his own race. Racism is great, or don't you want to be an individual as everybody else is.
2. Harming other people is something that is wrong. It doesn't matter if they have skin color that is basically different. Since they are people, harming them is wrong. And if they harm others through racism, they are wrong.
3. The whole racism focus is something that certain groups of people, usually in government, are using to weaken our working together. Racism is good, since we are all of the human race. Racism is good, since we are each our own race because of differences. People who use the idea of racism as a tool to cause harm to various people are bad.
My bad!
I didn't read your entire quote.
I agree with you especially on point 3.

Can you give an example of how it is used as a building block (I thought constitution said men are all created equal)?
How very American of you. Your constitution contains no reference to God either yet it's in everywhere. In the money too.If you really didn't understood what i was saying i was of course referring to institutional racism
It's about discriminatory laws, policies and practices, as well as the lack of representation and opportunities for certain racial groups. And how beliefs and stereotypes about different racial groups are reinforced and perpetuated by institutions.
If you were unlucky and your school didn't teach about these things, sadly i am not much of a teacher either, and i would be much more comfortable to point you to an actual experts who have studied this a lot. Luckily there's ton of reading material around about structural/institutional racism. Start from wikipedia and then to studies like this.
Racism has always existed, I think.
People (specially during times of conflict and bad economy) opt for tribalism, to take care of their own to many levels: family, national, racial, religious, etc.
Things have improved with the years in general, around the world and I hope they will continue to improve, but realistically racist people there will be always there until the end of human civilization.
It is about making a comparison the past decades in the American society and today, the citizens are more equal in the eyes of the law, not completely equal as it is supposed to be, though.
Sure, xenofobia and racism exists everywhere and t would be racist to suggest otherwise. But west has pretty much industrialised racism by using it as a building block for a society, and made it an efficient tool for controlling minorities. But just because something has existed in the history, doesn't mean we couldn't get rid of it in the future.

Who are 'minorities' and why are they called that?

It will take time to eradicate racism from the world, especially in the United States and the United Kingdom. Because some of them still find it difficult to believe that all human races are equal, imagine buying a black phone less expensive and a white phone more expensive just because of the colour variations. Even in their movies, whites are portrayed as superior humans over blacks.
