:pc:What is Racism?</u> Racism means attitudes, practices and other factors that disadvantage people because of their race, color or ethnicity. Racism can be directed against any race, color or ethnicity.
Some examples of racism are obvious, such as graffiti, intimidation or physical violence. Racial and ethnic slurs and "jokes" are other examples. Unfortunately, they are often ignored because people do not know how to deal with them.
Other forms of racism are not obvious, such as discrimination in hiring and apartment rentals, or policies that disadvantage members of certain races, whether intentionally or not.
Racism exists at three main levels: individual, institutional and cultural.

What can I do to stop racism?
First of all, speak out against racism. Otherwise, your silence may be interpreted as tacit approval of discrimination. You have the right, as well as the responsibility, to speak out.

Very nice stamp!

Sadly, it still goes on to this very day. And it looks like it's getting worse. The media also throws in race bait to make people divide!

On another note, some anti-racists are in actually racists themselves. They'll put their race first because they were slighted when they claim to want equality for everyone. That's also racist.

Don't get me wrong, I hate racism period from anyone as every race can be racist, but it's important to not put yourself above others due to it.

Ugh. I CAN'T STAND RACISM! IT'S AS BAD AS BULLYING! I hate that caucasian people believe that they're superior to every other race. (No offense to those who are caucasian and do not believe in "White supremacy" like a "certain clan" does) -__-

I hate it too as well as other racial hate groups like the Black Panther Party, the Brown Shirts, Neo-Nazi, etc.

They should all be sent to a different planet to sort out their problems once and for all. The winners can then be sent even further into deep space. This planet won't miss them.

Dude, I'm black too. And WHERE in my post did I call you stupid? Honestly, where is it?

Since racism can be in EVERY race, I'm saying all RACIAL HATE GROUPS should be sent away. All of the ones who say that their race is superior should be sent away so the people here on Earth who want nothing to do with hatred can live in peace. NOWHERE in my post did I say "all black people should be sent out in space". I said ALL RACIAL HATE GROUPS. Meaning the KKK, Neo-Nazi, Aryan Brotherhood, Black Panther Party, Brown Shirts, and any others! I really don't understand how you figured I was attacking you.

Never did I say that you were. I'm just mad because people always pick on black people. I NEVER insinuated that you were attacking me.

Sorry for the misunderstanding. ^^;

Yeah, white supremacists always act like whites do no wrong. They say "Only blacks riot" when in there's rioting around the world. In Vancouver, Canada there was a riot over a hockey game! In Europe there were riots in 2010.

No race is perfect, but that shows that we're all human. It's a shame that people are still stuck on race. :-(
