I think it's a lack of understanding, I used to remember when I was growing up and I was told to hate other people by the peer group, it's only when my parents asked me why I hated that particualr group I was left to actually look into the reasons why, as a reason is just that.
You need to have facts behind it to be sure that your decision is just, and so when I looked into why I hated that group I realised that they were not as violent as everyone made out to be, those who hated them were actually more violent.
I only hope that people realise that full knowledge of a situation and people could help stop so many misunderstandings in the owrld before it's too late.

I have experienced racism many times in my life, but what black person hasn't? That does not mean I hate all white people. One of my closest friends is white and my two Godchildren are half white. I have half white cousins as well as half Puerto Rican cousins. Just because one person did something to me that was racist doesn't make me hate everybody of that race. I also have a friend that is mexican. I know that alot of mexicans don't like blacks, but that doesn't stop me from being her friend.

I was born into the human race. My mind developed normally. Prejudice is a human trait. It's how you manage not to keep grabbing hot pans with your bare hands or how you know that 2+2 is 4. It is natural for us to fear what we don't understand the only way for us not to be racists is to understand other races.

I am not racist, but I would suggest some are due to:
- ignorance
- upbringing
- current events
- plain stupidity
- past experience
I am not suggesting that these are valid reasons, but rather that they are possible factors for this intolerable behaviour.

Im personally not racist towards anyone, but i think the reason wht people are racist it because they were raised that way. Say someones parents didnt like any african american people-than their son was raised to think that-and he continues to think that today.

God created us all equal. It is our upbringing what we see around us breeds such hatred that we look down upon a fellow human. It is the greatest crime one can commit against the laws of God who created us all equal.
