Racism seems to be an ongoing problem in our world today. I don't think people really understand what the problem is though. I personally think that the main reason racism is as big of a problem as it is today is because everyone wants to classify people by race. The first thing the government wants to tell you when you are in school is...you are white or you are hispanic. Mark that circle there on that sheet. Then they are always doing polls on what the minorities think. This immediately tells young people that people are different based on race. That different races have different opinions. In reality every single person has their own opinion, but for some reason people like to categorize by race.
I think the only way we will every end racism...is to completely stop classifying people by race. I don't think this will ever happen.
yea i see where u goin with that but sum people take it 2 far, but they ask u to mark the race circle cuz they gotta know how skoo works in ur country so they can help u with that here or anywhere else dey ask that question...and im black so were one of the races that got big problems with being judged by race but otha than that i love bein black cuz its tight

Well they wouldn't be asking your race to find out what schools were like in your country cause a lot of countries will fall into one category, and being a certain race does not mean you lived in any specific country at any time. And seriously...being black in the past was a race with big problems with being judged by race, but today I think most races are having an equal amount of problems from other races. People just notice racism towards black people more because it was such a huge issue in the past.

Everyone thinks that their race get hit the hardest. In the past it was Black people and now it is everyone toward everyone. Even if a white person treats a black person better because they think they should make up for past transgresions that is racism. Not the bad type but you see the point.

I get bothered for being white all the time and have goten into fights because of people using the past to justify racism against white people. What they dont realise is that I was not even thought of at that point...and also that people from spain are the first to take african slaves and my familys from Ireland.
