Because there is one foolish idea in our mind that say our race/my race is the best from the other. We never think that we are all equal infront of God Almighty. There are some place which black and white people are rarely seen to walk, play, have fun with each other. It is now, thank God, getting decreased, but I am sure, if the world don't help to solve racism, it will last for the next 100 years, and I'm really sad about it!

All races have legends/stories that say that race is the best and the arrogance / hate are still being taught by some.There are others,like myself who create the space for a better world. Peace.

A poor aboriginal once ask me for a smoke and a dollar to help him out, i dont smoke, and i'm broke i said, he instantly accused me of being racist becuz i am white and he was black! I told him that i am not racist, my dog is black and i love him. people who ARE racist need a wake up call, every ones blood is red, we all have the same components inside of us all, we all breath and eat to live, we all use a dunny to rid the unwanted. does toilet paper care if your bum is black or white? Treat me like a human not a colour or race.

Most people think their race is better than anothers... Whether its because of color, creed, political views or religion... most people think they are right and don't understand other peoples beliefs.

It is learned from parents and because humans have a confirmation bias they refuse to be convinced otherwise.

it doesn't, the african bushman is not biased towards other races. they are the original race according to scientific DNA analysis (i saw it on PBS the other day).
