Racism

Racism is sinful! Well, i belive it is! I just can't understand why people could be so passionate as to hold something as superficial as someone's skin colour against them.

Too often, some people act as though blacks and whites are the only ethnicities living in London's society... Well what about Latinos and Asians? They are citizens too. Racism exists against blacks, whites, Latinos, Asians, and other various cultures/ethnicities within this nation. And

Instead, I prefer to judge people based on how they treat others and their outlook on other people. If someone makes stupid generalizations in reference to race, gender or religion, then they deserve to be condemned.

Multiculturalism is a huge positive aspect on London's society. Life would be pretty boring if everyone was exactly the same. The diversity on Earth is what makes us all so unique and allows us to learn from each other.

Above all, if a racist is going to judge others by their skin colour, then he/she must be prepared to accept the possibility that a racist of another skin color may equally view him/her as "inferior." Of course, this would be anti a racist's philosophy that he/she belongs to the "superior" race. In which case, racists tread upon a very thin and delicate layer of an icy double standard when exhibiting such an attitude.

The question then remains: what should we do to decrease racism? Inevitably, we must look to the past and not repeat prejudicial injustices and transgressions which have been committed throughout history. However, rather than place blame on racial/ethnic groups of today, we must teach our children that such racism in historical times was WRONG. Rather then causing comtemporary students of history to inflict guilt upon themselves for wrongdoings of the past, we must help today's youth recognize the wrongness of historical and present-day racism to avoid continuously repeating tragic and unjust mistakes of the past. If history has taught us anything, it is that preferential treatment based on race (and gender) has only led to further injustice and corruption

So no matter what race someone is, it is morally wrong for him/her to generalizeor discriminate against another race, or even his/her own race. No one has that right. There's just no getting around it!!
