Racism- Opinion Report
Racism is still existent in the United States and all over the world.
However, racism isnt a very big problem, as big as I thought it was. It is
unfortunate that people still use the race card to get into or out of
situations that most likely have nothing to do with race. I believe using race
to tear people down is an unjust and cruel to get people where they want to
be. Other situations that are also problematic are the people taking
advantage of the other race. For example, policemen have been a constant
target for being racist towards black people. Policemen must take action in
duty if they feel they are in any danger or if the person is being
uncooperative with the policemen. Its known that policemen, especially
white policemen, are being shamed for being racist, yet people dont seem
to understand that the man committing the crime could be rude,
uncooperative, and very difficult with dealing with the police which can
unfortunately lead to the death. Social media can be very manipulative and
can turn the situation around stating that all policemen are racist.
Racism is still a problem today. Although, is it also being abused to get
what people want? Do people really use the race card to justify their own
race and beliefs? It used to be a society where race was truly a problem and
it did affect peoples lives. Our community now uses race as a justification for
who they are and dont let people forget it. In experience, racism is not a
problem in my community. It is a very safe and accepting environment. I
think that people are truly racist and they need to adjust to the 21st century.
However in another point of view, people abuse race to manipulate others.
No matter what people do, you may never hear the end of racism in the world.
