Why is Racism a problem?

Racism
"Racism is a complex and deeply ingrained issue that involves the belief in the inherent superiority or inferiority of individuals or groups based on their race. It manifests in various forms, including discriminatory attitudes, behaviors, policies, and systemic inequalities.

Racism has no scientific basis as there is only one human race, but it has had significant social and historical impacts throughout the world. It has led to discrimination, oppression, and marginalization of racial and ethnic minorities, resulting in unequal access to resources, opportunities, and social justice.

Efforts to combat racism have been ongoing for many years, with progress made in some areas. However, it remains a persistent problem in societies globally. Various approaches have been employed to address racism, including education, legislation, advocacy, and promoting diversity and inclusion.

It is crucial for individuals and communities to actively challenge and confront racism, both in overt and subtle forms, to create a more equitable and just society. This involves recognizing and challenging our own biases, promoting empathy and understanding, and advocating for policies and practices that promote equality and justice for all people, regardless of their race or ethnicity."
