RACISM

Racism occurs in both active and passive ways, through social exclusion, name-calling, abuse and discrimination based on attributes such as color, clothing, religion or culture. Discrimination haunts many people worldwide, making their lives difficult and painful by breaking their spirits and hindering their work and social progress through lost jobs or promotions. Before judging or being cruel to someone due to attributes like color, origin or appearance, we should think about how we would feel if treated that way without reason and stand in their shoes to develop empathy, as no one wants to be treated spitefully for their appearance. Racism is a vice that needs to be eradicated.

Have you ever judged people because they are from a certain country or

belongs to a certain race? Have you ever felt every eye on you knowing
that you are being continuously observed and judged? If you haven’t been
through this, just imagine how would you like it? Not even a bit, right? So, if
we don’t like it, we should never do it to someone else.
Racism can raise its ugly head in many places. It may occur in an active
way or a passive way. It may be by exclusion, leaving people who are
different out of social groups and gatherings, not considering their views
and experiences, outcasting them aside, calling them names and insulting
them. Racism is demonstrated mostly in behavior and activities that reflect
a dislike, abuse, violence directed to a certain community. Discrimination
based on color, clothing, religion or culture is racism. A strong legal
community is needed to protect people targeted by abuse. 
Discrimination haunts many people worldwide. It can make their life worse,
full of pain and struggle. It not only breaks hearts but also wants to make
people give up in progressing at work or socially. Loss of a job, loss of
promotion, and such events can destroy morale. They can become reasons
for venting out of everyday frustration and aggression. 
Before we judge someone badly or do something cruel to someone, based
on color, country of origin or an issue of appearance let’s take a minute and
think. Would we like to be in their shoes? Please stand where they are.
Would we like to be treated spitefully for no reason other than the way we
appear? The answer is no. Then let’s not do something to someone that we
wouldn’t like to happen to ourselves. Racism is a vice and it needs to be
eradicated.
