racist ?...
This week we learned about racism and how people are categorized. We took a test today in class on european and africans and split them by pictures. The day before we categorized people and out of all of them we got two right. The fact that life is like that sucks, we shouldnt be categorizing people and discriminating against them in any way. I didnt know that we could choose our own race either and then to be categorized wrong by others around you would be disappointing. Trying to think of what group people are you cant just base them off of what they look like, we need to take a step back and see their background and then that is how u know what race they truly are. No matter where you are in the world there is going to be a different stereotype that people will identify you as. We need to be against discrimination and change the way we perceive others.

i agree that no matter where you are in the world there will be a different sterertype that people will have against you, good or bad.
ReplyDeleteI agree! I think it is very important to classify people by who they are, not the color of their skin or what they look like. I've never really thought of the fact that people get disappointed when classified with the "wrong race". I guess I never realized that because I have light skin and am automatically thought of as a part of the "superior, more beautiful race" because of my lighter skin, which is so ridiculous.
ReplyDeleteI agree with your ideas but why the cussing? Can you keep your writing academic and professional?
