Sociology - December 2007

Racism and prejudice towards different races was always a prominent factor all through history. However, after many years, and many series of changes, racism still remains like a oil stain. So, why do people tend to judge and sterotype someone based on their skin color? Why even in 2007, and despite of liberalism developing in the next generation, why do many other people remain so ignorant?

I think to a certain degree we are all guilty of it. We have strong feelings about our values and beliefs and develop tunnel vision to any other perspective. Do you try to look at issues from both sides?

There has been quite a few oil spills recently, the most recent being in korea, when this happens thousands of birds may die, but if you compare it to the number of birds and small mammals that are killed by the domestic cat, (count how many there are and estimate just how many creatures they kill) the loss is relatively small in comparison, (and seabirds are also quite common in comparison to wild birds). Why don't news programmes focus on the environmental harm caused by cats?
