Racism

These two issues are one of the world biggest problems that influence and impact lives. Sexism and Racism but in my opinion racism is the most severe between the two. Racism is an issue of an entire race, the males as well as the females. Racism makes people feel alienated and alone. In many parts of the world, racism stands stronger than sexism. Have any of you heard or seen the racist words...It's everywhere. They give dirty looks to them, like they were garbage. They mistreat them and even beat them up. Victims of Racism receives more violence than sexism's victims. If a certain race lived an area of racist environment then they could up being brutally murdered. Many opportunities would be out of their reach, not because they can't accomplish it but because of their race.

The humiliation they have to go through, each single day. hey only have their own race to support them but what if they all got killed? That person would be all alone, by themselves and hated. Victims of racism could go crazy and attack people and then kill themselves afterwards. Victims of sexism could go crazy but it's not like the entire world is against them, no matter where they go to, their chances of meeting their own gender is a lot higher than the chance of a immigrant meeting heir own race at a new area. Racist jokes always hurt the most, because it's something you can't change. They also have places they can never go to unless they want to be killed. they could get kicked out of their own hometown just because of their race.

They could be fired just because of their race or never get hired in the first place. In the past, some hospitals wouldn't even accept them as patients just because of that race. Some schools would not accept a certain race as a student. In schools today, there are certain races that always gets made fun of. Teacher that abuse those students because they couldn't speak English. Making friends would be hard for them if they are in a racist environment. Some of them even gets robbed just because the robber believes they couldn't speak English. Victims of racism always live their life in fear, because they never know when they would get killed. Life is valuable and that's the conclusion that makes racism worse. Losing a life and suffering through a life that's not worth living is the same in my opinion. Fear, pain and death is something victims of racism suffer through almost everyday.
