Reasons Why We Should Stop Being Racist

Racism is a social phenomenon that has been viewed negatively and has existed since millions of
years ago, since humans first existed on Earth. In archaeological research, it is revealed that
humans have often slaughtered one another because of differences in race, species, or ethnic
attributes. In social sciences, racism can be explained as an attitude and belief that a group of
humans has different habits or any differences, and can be divided according to the superiority of
one race over another. Racism can cause some negative effects, such as conflicts, discrimination,
and causing mental illness.

In order to maintain their power, political leaders often stir up racial hatred to strengthen as non-
humans who have the right to respect their rights, and legitimize human rights violations. That's
all can cause conflict.

Racism makes women even more discriminated against. Some forms of racial discrimination
affect women and men differently. There are racist acts that are almost entirely experienced by
women, such as the forced sterilization of indigenous women.

Racism can also affect the mental health of victims. Victims will feel not confident and decrease
their self-esteem. They will even hate the uniqueness that they have. Because they feel different,
they will try to eliminate or cover it up.

Without realizing it, racist behavior can cause some negative impacts to the victims' conditions,
such as trauma and loss of self-confidence. Even though it may only be a joke, it can cause some
of problems. Therefore, we as social human should stop racism because it causes some of bad
impacts on the condition of the victims. Don't be racist for the sake of self-satisfaction that is not
worth the impacts that come after that.
