What is Racism?
I recently started a group on Facebook called "Racism is Flat Out Wrong". While I had my own reasons for starting the group that I shared in my blog, one of the first members of the group asked a question I didn't expect would be asked: "What is racism? How can we discuss it if we haven't defined it?" I've been thinking about that question ever since. It's been a journey and well worth the investment of time and energy.
This video addressing an aspect of racism in America that isn't talked much about: "White Privilege". I thought it worth while to share.
"At any time, in any place, by any one, for any reason, racism is flat out wrong."
For me it's discrimination due to ones race. MinS
