RACISM

BY: BRYLEE LVESQUE

RACISM HAS EXISTED

THROUGHOUT HUMAN
HISTORY, IT MAY BE DEFINED
AS THE HATRED OF ONE
PERSON BY ANOTHER OR
THE BELIEF THAT ANOTHER
PERSON IS LESS HUMAN
BECAUSE OF SKIN COLOR,
LANGUAGE, OR THERE PLACE
OF BIRTH.

QUOTE BY NELSON
MANDELA
NO ONE IS BORN HATING ANOTHER
PERSON BECAUSE OF THE COLOR OF
HIS OR HERS SKIN OR HIS OR HERS
BACKGROUND. PEOPLE LEARN TO
HATE BUT IF THEY LEARN TO HATE,
THEY CAN BE TAUGHT TO LOVE FOR
LOVE COMES MORE NATURALLY TO
THE HUMAN HEART THAN ITS
OPPOSITE.

WESTERN DAYS
DURING 500-1000 YEARS, RACISM ON
THE PART OF WESTERN POWERS
TOWARD NON-WESTERN HAS HAD A
FAR MORE SIGNIFICANT IMPACT ON
HISTORY THAN ANY OTHER FORM OF
RACISM SUCH AS RACISM AMONG
WESTERN GROUPS OR AMONG
EASTERN GROUPS SUCH AS ASIANS,
AFRICANS, AND OTHERS.

MANY YEARS AGO, IN

DIFFERENT TYPES OF
PLACES THEY HAD
WASHROOMS THAT SAID ONE
WAS FOR THE COLORED AND
ONE FOR THE WHITE
PEOPLE.
