why are people such racists these days?

Question

Like some of my family are very very much racists...why???

Answer 1

'THESE DAYS' ITS ALWAYS BEEN THERE AND NOT GOING AWAY

Answer 2

Education teaches that the differences between races are non- existent, however, this has only become a constant learning principle over the last 25 years. The people who have been out of school more than 25 years missed the classes and therefore somehow feel that what they were taught by their racially bias village is the correct learning. It also appears that these same people are by virtue of their longevity in the workplace, are now in the position of management or the upper echelons of many powerful organizations where their conduct goes on unchallenged by the masses that wish to keep their standing.

Answer 3

These days? Like we never had slavery? or segregation or apatite?

I think it happens because people feel threatened. If you have lived in a white area all your life and suddenly within five years your town is full of black Africans with no respect at all for your culture. Its scary! I mean thousands of them.

They push in lines (Q s) and generally are rude and sullen.

In Australia I was racially attacked for being English over and over. Its very common. Aboriginal people are treated like scum and do not go out to 'white' pubs.I have also met an Aussie digger who was in Vietnam and hated all Americans with a passion. And I don t know many Americans who live in an areas that are 'mixed' not 'white' or 'black'.

Its lack of education!


Its all a great shame but human nature

Answer 4

because its easier to put others down for something they have had no control over rather than look at them selves. don't let small narrow minded people like that get you down. luckily there are some people in the world who don't think bad of others because of where they are from or the tone of their skin etc. just find it a comfort that your a better person for not being the same as them. I'm white but you don't hear people calling me a whitey so why call someone a name for being different to you ? its mad.

Answer 5

because they are close minded plus look how they grew up racial rites and stuff i mean if iwas in that time i may have held a grudge too! but it's how there enviroment was when they were raised. I feel bad that people can stay close minded < they miss out on sooo much!
Good luck
Mad luv

Answer 6

I don't really know why the colour of the skin or the shape of the eyes can separate SO much the people. Maybe fear and ignorance.

Answer 7

Overall people are much less so now than they were 20 years agao, at least in my part of England anyway

Answer 8

Maybe have something to do with the the fact that they move into our towns and hang around in groups and make areas so hostile that you don't feel safe to walk through them.

Answer 9

Ditto onmykneez4cheez

Racism is based on misunderstanding that turns into fear.Most people who are afraid get defensive.Then we have racism. Oh yeah some people are just ignorant.

Answer 10

Because they were raised that way, they think Because one person is bad everyone is in a certain race.
They are way to Judgmental
There is many answers to this question
They are narrow minded.

Answer 11

You obviously don't have to live with ethnic minorities etc.

The British Government cause more racist hatred by giving them everything free and deprive our own.

If your are from the UK then pay taxes, if not from UK all free.
