Racism is blatantly still an issue for certain races. My very good friend is a white gal who tends to be attracted to black men and her parents are constantly criticizing her about her choices in men. Why? This is the way they grew up from their parents. The parents are in their late 40s early 50s.
This is the first time I heard this story but it appears to me that it is obviously racism. This should not be tolerated. My background is very diverse and I am so sick and tired of hearing about racism in this day of age. The United States is probably the biggest melting pot there is when it comes to diversity. Can't we all just get along?
The best way to stop this disrespect of a race is to teach our children about diversity and differences yet similarities. I was never brought up to think that a certain race was bad. I think many people that are prejudice are fearful of that race. Plain and simple. What are they so scared of?
Racism is all over history, but now is the time to stop. No one is better then the next person. We all have our pros and cons. I hope this may be a learning lesson for people who are prejudice.
