Because of the characteristics of modern society (migration, globalization, integration), it is difficult to find truly pure races today. We are all the product of a mixture of White, Black, and Indian blood. As a matter of fact, if you look around you right now, you’ll probably see a variety of skin colors, eye colors, and hair around you. Look at your friends, people on the street and around the world! They’re tall, short, fat, plump, thin, . . . some have straight hair; others, curly hair; and there are some, I’m sure, who have wavy hair. Observe that in your city there may be persons with black eyes, brown eyes green eyes, etc.
The thing is: even though we’re different, we’re the same! We all belong to the same family: humans. Therefore, we all have the same basic rights: right to an identity, right to an education, right to a family, right to a healthy life. Racism, for that matter, should not exist. If we all make an effort to accept and respect others – no matter their sex, nationality, race, skin color, religion, or social condition – this world would be a better, safer place for all.
