Summary Of Racism Is Poisoning Our Society

In the article “Racism is Poisoning Our Society” the author spoke about, despite what people may think, racism still exists. People are treated different because of the color of their skin.

It is so sad to think that people find discrimination and stereotypes funny. People can laugh all they want, but when it comes to them they would be upset if someone was racist towards them. I am not saying that I am an angel and I do not have stereotypes of my own, but I do try hard to push them out of my head. Everyone should try to push the stereotypes that society has shoved into our brains. I believe that my generation is strong. I think that we can work together to make a difference. We are so advanced in technology and we could so easily work with each other. We can use our Internet skills to make a difference. I do not think it would be too hard. It may be a lot of work, but it is not impossible. I know that I would really appreciate a change if I was experiencing the racism that many people experience. I do not want my kids to experience problems with racism because it should not exist by then. My generation can make a change and we should make a change. I hope that something get’s done about racism and I am willing to be part of that
