How can we prevent racism?

Question

allot of people in my school are racist, i'm not black,Asian or foreign but it still makes me angry and uncomfortable, i was wondering if there is anything i could do to stop this, then i started thinking if ALL racism will ever come to an end, will it?,what would it take to stop it, and how can i stop the...

Answer 1

I feel the same about racism, why should people be judged just because of their skin colour or foreign roots? :( If you ever hear anyone racially insulting someone else, tell someone. Teacher, close trusted friend, or even talk to the person who is being insulted. If things aren't said, they won't be stopped. I hope racism comes to an end, however our society seems to be getting worse and worse with crime etc. Try talking to your RE teacher about things you can do to help people, or just simply give the insulted people someone to talk to. Your friends don't sound like good people to be with. If they won't listen to you on this serious matter, forget them. You sound like a really nice person who deserves better than them! Although chances of racism stopping look bleak, just hope, it's all we can do. I believe with people like Martin Luther King, and even you and I, our world will become a place of racial equality :)

Answer 2

Racism comes from poor education of another culture and is fuelled by the media, its crazy but some people just don’t like diversity, they want everything to be the same, everyone to think the same as they do, can you imagine that? What a boring world.
I think it would be nice if you could peacefully convince your friends that they are being ignorant by perhaps introducing them to people of a different origin that are good role models and have actually achieved something, Gandhi or Martin Luther king perhaps (sorry not down on modern culture to well) i'm sure you can find someone.
It might take a while and it depends if you really care for them, anything that involves hate is a sickness for which there is a cure. Forcing anyone to do anything is almost impossible, then your stepping into Nazi territory and most likely you will create enemies of them if they don’t comply.

Cultural integration is hard in a capitalist society (Money motivated) people come into the country which threatens the locals, they feel they will suffer financially because there will be less opportunities for them, if there was no money and everyone was afforded the same benefits then who would really care about racism or cultural differences? There would be no reason for it.

It might also be beneficial for you to find out the source of their hatred perhaps there parents are racists, then if you tell them to stop you would be insulting their parents so this is why it requires subtlety.
To sort out any problem in life you need to get to the source of it before you can find a solution, my suggestion, to anyone that is ignorant of another person is to walk a mile in their shoes or treat others like you would like to be treated yourself, is it nice when somebody tells you that your slow or fat or stupid?
Racism is not just about black or white its fat and thin, ugly or beautiful, poor or wealthy, to hate anyone for those reasons is essentially the same thing.

ps. Evolution says we were all black at one point in history.

Answer 5

you cannot stop it as long as the heart of many men remain corrupt and without genuine love, do not surround yourself with such company, what benefits are there to you and is it really worthwhile? stand up for what is right, evil wins the moment good people remain silent about things that actually matter

Answer 6

Think about this. How is what you want to do and feel about racism any different than a racist person? I will not globalize I hate that idea and it makes me mad that people would see my heritage and everyone elses for that matter destroyed and we all become one big old thing. Every watched the episode of south park with the people from the future? I would rather be who I am and have my own rights rather than look just like every other person in the world. Differences are good not bad moron. So sorry I do not like the differences of someone else but that just means I was not meant to be that persons friend.

Answer 7

people need to be open minded..

Answer 8

Nuke Canada. It is where evil was born.

Answer 9

You can't really stop people from being ignorant and to be honest, there's nothing you can really do. Just make sure you don't involve yourself in such stupidity.
