It is true that If ignorance had a color we could all despise it with all our might. But we should always remember that knowledge is power. We should fight ignorance and racism with knowledge and not with hate. Fueling the fire of ignorance is not a solution its arson to society. Fight with knowledge, fight with education and opportunity...meet the ignorance where it is born...generation to generation, feed truth to the youth. (totally did not mean that to rhyme). I agree that ignorance should not exist, but we too would be ignorant if we were not educated...if they turned green we could all hate them and despise them...but there is no power in that, no knowledge being spread and so we would be no better. We should not purge out ignorance like they would to a race of people, we should do it with education, in my opinion.

Ignorances is taught, people are not born that way.
however Almost everyone is ignorant about something, not just about skin color, race, creed, but just about anything and everything someone is doesn't know everything about and has thoughts and believes on it because that is what they grew up with.
It is easier to teach younger people to not be ignorant and to keep an open mind then it is to change a older persons views.
It takes time, but no matter how much people try to change it there will still be a few ignorant people in the world.
Kind of like what goes up must come down- for every odd thing there is an even thing.

I agree. You can see skin color walking down the street. Ignorance has to wait until someone does or says something of its sort to be manifested. Which one's the easier target?

I completely agree with you.... ignorance/intolerance/racism/prejudice are the most unappealing traits a person can possess.

Tony, good question.
Ignorance is my pet peeve.
It is the reason of perhaps 70% of the world's scenario.
So sad.
