Like most religions my religion, Jainism, promotes equality in treatment for everyone no matter what their religion, race, caste etc. But the problem is not the religion, it is the culture and the people it in. The culture appears peaceful on the outside, but it’s rotten on the inside.
The other day my auntie and I were walking in the park, and ahead of us was a black man doing nothing suspicious except feeding the pigeons. He wasn't coming towards us. But I was told to walk the other way. She thought she would be mugged or murdered. She seems to be tolerant with White people, but not so tolerant with Muslims or Blacks. I asked her why and she seems them as wicked criminals. And I think its all those papers she reads playing on her mind.
My auntie definitely doesn’t know what’s she’s doing, and I don’t think its something you do consciously. So how do I know if I am being racist? I think I am generally tolerate, but yes there are somethings in other cultures I don’t approve of
