Racism

I'm glad that we talk about topics like this in a classroom. It's always talked about, not really in a classroom with a teacher that let's us express our thoughts on it. Racism is something that will never change, well not ever go away. Racism has been around for the longest and is something that one is raised one. In most cases that's what it is, they just see it don't and think that's how things are and that it's fine just to do it. It's come along way from segregation, and the slave days. We know base our racism on stereotypes and derogatory terms. Calling them a name that history made up couple hundred years ago. Do I see it getting worse in the future? Of course because now everything has to be related to race. Everything happens because of race, I get pulled over because I'm black and suspicious, I get arrested and beaten because I'm black not because I have illegal substances on me and I'm resisted arrest. Things will continue to be portrayed like that and it's just sad.
