Sometimes the prejudice around me makes me feel so alone. I see so much racism and sexism on the news, in politics, sometimes in the remarks of strangers, but what really hurts is when I see it in those I love. We have so much fear of what we don’t understand that it’s killing people’s kindness. And what’s worse is that people don’t want to change. They want to continue feeling better than others, getting more, succeeding more and accepting people who are different might mean thay have to give some of that up. “When you are accustomed to privilege, equality feel like oppression.”
It’s not so hard is it? We are all human beings. We all want to be safe and happy and have our loved ones around us. When people talk about their jobs being taken by foreigners all I can think is, “so what?” We live in a place where people have too much, surely there is enough to share. What is money when you are talking about somone’s life?
The world is unfair enough without us bringing more hate into it. And I look around and hate has become acceptable. I don’t even feel comfortable speaking up when someone is racist around me because prejudice has became so supported that I’m afraid of the reaction I’ll get.
To me it seems so obvious that it hurts. Treat people with respect and kindness, if you can help someone in need, you should. Don’t judge an entire community of people because of the actions of one individual. People are not all the same because of the colour of their skin.
Prople are all people.
We are all the same.
