one thing i always try to bring up to people who are racist is that, if they do fit that stereotype its because we force them. when women makes 71 cents on the dollar that a man does, african americans make less than that and latinos make even less than that of a white male. how is anyone who is not a white male supposed to make it out here? me making half what a man makes and i cant support myself or get decent healthcare but im looked down on if i take welfare. let alone they do not have adequate health care or access to brith control and people expect them to be selebate their whole lives. every force in society presses against minorities and then we get mad at them for "draining the economy" but we give them no opportunities to advance. maybe if we didnt discriminate and paid them equal pay they would have motivation and better their community. we demonize them when were the ones keeping them in their "niche". because, guess what, if we allowed them to advance, and they did, we would have noone to look down on. thats how we keep it so that whites will always be superior. its sad but its true. sorry, that was my rant. thats why racism really eats away at me.
