Do you have ways to stop racism?

As you said, there will always be hate groups. I can think of two ways to stop racism but then people would find another reason. this I believe is a human trait. Look at the Israeli/Palestine problem. that is religion because they are the same people. The Catholic and Protestant used to war, again religion.

My ideas wouldn't be a 100% heal but it would eliminate some of it.

We would have to ban all relationships involving same race births, thereby creating only mixed race people or blind all people so they couldn't see the color of a persons skin. Neither are plausible. One could try education or putting the races together in a civic situation, but in the near 50 years of segregated schools that hasn't worked either. The other way is just as difficult and that is to create two nations and let the people decide which one they want, but once you go, you stay.

This wouldn't work either, so all we can do is to ignore the idiots who are racist and try to live our lives in honor and love for what we have and who we are, Human Beings!

There is a song written some years ago with a line in it which goes something like "What we need is a great big melting pot" it was referring to racism and saying if only we could put everyone in this pot and make them all come out the same racism would end, It's not going to happen, but if everyone could only see that we are all the same under the skin that would be great. I have experienced racism and I am white it makes no difference what colour you are someone somewhere will have a go because you are different from them it isn't only white people who are against other colours the other colours also against whites and unfortunately I don't know how to stop it Back to your idea do you really think rewarding the black community will make the white community like them more the answer to that is a definite NO

Racism can happen everywhere and will. And actually, to me, now that there is a black person as a president, it shows how racism should never be an excuse anymore.

There will ALWAYS be a portion of people who remain racist. Things are nothing like they were 60 years ago. Even 30 years ago. I think if Martin L. King came back today and saw what he would see, he would have a freakin heart attack, because as far as his "dream" goes, it came. In fact it's gone beyond "equality". Because of this, modern day racism is caused by this favoritism.

All in all, Bibs answered this best. Duval also brought out a good point of how many people are most comfortable with their own race. Does that make you racists? If you're white yes, but otherwise no.

I think we need to realize what racism really is and that it has nothing to do with JUST white people.

1st way- Start from your self

Think about that are you a racist person. If yes, throw all the negativity from your mind of being superior to other and thoughts about different people’s race.

2nd way- learn the fact about to end racism and stop other to be a racist

We just need to get over the fact that we are of different races that includes colors, religions, sexes and many more. It's not that big deal of we are all the same from inside. See every person from one perspective. And if you see a person being racist, stop that person and tell about the fact to end racism to that person. If we just try to get on with everyone, the world will become a better place to live.

3rd way- spread knowledge about racism

Racism is an infection that spreads from people to people. To kill that infection, we need an antidote. And that antidote is letting every people in the society about causes of racism. Besides knowledge spread faster than any other thing. If no one will be a racist, than the word ‘racism’ would never exist.

RE:

Do you have ways to stop racism?

The last decade has shown an incredible progression but not enough. The election won't be enough. But, some of the die hards racists will be well, dying off soon. The ones left will be their children who were raised to be the same way. I don't count white supremists groups because they are...

I notice that where there is not apparent racism that different races still are more comfortable with their own race. That is because of some of the reasons you state. A lot of whites say they have black friends, but usually they are of the same educational and ecconomical level. I have a black friend that can do nothing for me, but I help him in any way I can because he is a wonderful person. It's not about color to me, but what kind of person they are.

There is not much one can do to stop racism, but here are some suggestions:

1. Don't associate with people who are racist.

2. Don't patronize businesses whose owners or staff are racist.

3. Basically, wherever you find racism, don't support it.

This will at least show some people that it is disadvantageous to be racist.

Take out a pen and paper and make 8 columns--black man and woman, white man and woman, latino man and woman, and asian man and woman. do a free association under each heading and don't censor yourself when you write it. put down whatever comes to mind, this is how a person can do an effective "soul search" for the racism we all as americans have somewhere in our consciouses.

Racism as well as other aggressions and hostilities towards groups of people or other phenomenons are probably a result of ignorance in combination with fear of what we don't know or don't want to know. In your immediate sphere you can try to stop it by setting a good example yourself.

It has to begin with me. It is about love of your neighbor. Simple to express but difficult to do. We as individuals must set an example, this is the greatest of all teachers. We can only have the strength to persevere in this through prayer.
