What is Racism? 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.
i like it when you said "any race", where I live there are a majority of both caucasians and african americans, and caucasians here are often denied employments or rights, while african americans are hired even if tey do not possess the skills to correctly handle the job, and if they are in the wrong it is over looked and the Caucasians pay for it in the end...you're right, any race can be discriminated against...not just one...it happens, just like in my example. Some have argued that they are just reaping what they sowed but no one should be discriminated agianst, Caucasians, Muslims, african americans, asians...no one, it's wrong no matter WHO does it! Racism is NEVER justified!
