One Love. Are We There Yet? No. We Aren't!

I think racism is a learned behavior. We do not come into this world hating a certain race, but rather are exposed to it. I think it is a very ignorant way to raise children as the world is made up of many different races and we are all different...that is what makes us unique. In spite of the experiences we may have had with someone, hating an entire race and raising children to do so is purely ignorant. I think we should learn to be tolerant of other people equally, in spite of race.

I fear that as long as humanity exists there will always be racism. That is one fact that many people I think know deep down and that frustrates them. There were always be people who will be looked down because they are rather different. And people will look down at people and not even know why, because it has been something that has been taught for generation after generation. There is really no reasoning for racism most of the time and when there is, it is just about a couple of bad experiences, as a lot of people just think of things in simplistic ways. Yet it is just something that happens. Some races have been at war with each other or have looked down at each other, when those who have stirred up the conflict have long since passed from its world. The cycle of hate will continue until extinction and that is the bad point about racism.

i think it depends on the situation. some people are rise to hate literally or subconsciously. some people have had to many bad or a bad experience. i also blame the media for perpetuation of hate. on the other hand, i do think it's getting better as people are becoming more evolved. we are in the stage of evolution, by the way. don't give up. something is going to come up, or maybe somethings that will make people just finally break down and stop it. something is going to all push us together.

I don't think racism and hate will totally disappear in the world even after 2050 or whenever. It's been with us even from a thousand years ago. I think it's a human nature to hate. We just need to be responsible in our actions.

I think racism and hate starts within our hearts. It is what we think about other people that lead us to a feeling of hate and racism. The place where we live, the family or friends that we have, have great factors of feeling racism and hate. We better change our mentality that our race is much better than any other race to eradicate racism. We must love our enemy and practice the sayings "forgive and forget" to avoid hate in our hearts. Of course, it is always easier said than done but the love for our brothers will move us to avoid racism and hate.

I think a little bit both. I think a lot is instilled in us from our family members, but also our own experiences of other races in school, and interactions in general life as well.
