Racial discrimination is the one which we are hearing every now and then .I always ask one question as to from where this started?
Years before when we were stagnant and didn't had any frequent mode of transportation to travel we used to stay at one place and started becoming biased and protective about of our culture.But as soon as we started traveling and experiencing different groups of people we started fearing of the things that were different.We progressed today rather advanced but still that fear exists.The fear caused disputes and disliking.And I feel this laid the foundation of so called RACISM.
One more fact which can be stressed is the upbringing.Each one of us have different opinions about different culture and since children are immature they pick-up our opinion.
We should give freedom to everyone to stay as they wish they want we should not tell them to adapt to the new place and blend themselves or develop a camouflage to survive the system and to protect themselves from teased or beaten up.We should give each person a chance to be a good person because there is good in all different types of ethnicity.
Racism affect society.The suppressed ethnic group struggle and find it hard in getting job,house.And sometime when they get frustrated they get in the mode of taking revenge.There are many cases of racism happened .Death of a 19-year-old Manipuri boy Richard Loitam in April 2012.January 2014 witnessed Nido Taniam, a 20-year-old student from Arunachal Pradesh beaten up by eight people in Delhi.Many more such incidents are still happening.
I would conclude this with a very famous dialogue of KRANTIVEER "Bata yeh Hindu ka khoon hai ya Muslim ka.Jab banane wale ne fark nahi kiya toh hum kaun hote hai fark karne wale" i.e. The blood flowing from people of all culture is same and when God didn't do any difference then who are we to do?
Can we really put an end to this?The answer is NO.Because Racism is a way used by Human Beings to retaliate the people whom they are not used to.A common tendency to selectively preserve their own kind even at the cost of a different type.Each one of us is associated with a power and each one of us can make a significant difference.So change your mindset and treat everyone equally.
