What is Racism?

It is the most terrible act that can be done by

humans!
• Prejudice, discrimination, or antagonism directed
against a person or people on the basis of their
membership in a particular racial or ethnic group,
typically one that is a minority or marginalized.
• The belief that different races possess distinct
characteristics, abilities, or qualities, especially so
as to distinguish them as inferior or superior to
one another.
 How does racism affect society?
- Toxic environment!
a. An environment where people just know to judge, discrimination, and prejudice
against each other base on some false belief in ethnocentrism, or intolerance of the
beauty in cultures.
b. An environment where people live in fear of being attacked anytime, anywhere! Or
the fear that their right is lost, and their justice cannot be served.
c. An environment that kills humanity! There is no love and sympathy if there is still
racism!

- Fatal misunderstanding
An example is in Crash movie with two black guys, and it creates a mess for this
society that we live in.
