There are a few topics on here about racism but they didn't really get into the topic that I wanted to discuss. Today, our class was talking about prejudice and racism and what caused people to be racist. It was quite interesting really, because my teacher said that the reason why people are racist is because they're afraid.
What do you guys think about this? Or what do you think causes people to be racist? |

QUOTE(brooklyneast05 @ Nov 30 2007, 02:57 PM)  ^what do u mean? Say someone mentally associates African Americans with gangstas and they don't like gangstas. If they see a white person dressed as a gangsta then they're probably doing to dislike him too. It's not the race it's the stereo type. It probably is a little bit of both. I'm just speaking from my own experience. |
