I view racism as a mad thing, which leads to segregation and is often driven by ignorance. Although racism is not as evident, as it was in the past, it still unfortunately exists. However I think it fair to say that from identifying people based on ones colour or heritage, follows the assumptions in which one categorises these people. When will the world become a place, where we start looking beyond ones colour and towards acceptance? Where do these influences come from? I think it’s fair to say that the media is the most influential source, which portrays a negative view of people from particular races. Many people still experience verbal and physical abuse as a result of there colour. I find it amusing that people, who chose to be racist towards others, don’t hesitate in experiencing some aspects of those different cultures, such as: an Indian takeaway and going on Caribbean cruises.
