Do you think racism is gone?
Well I pretty much thought that racism was gone, however watching the history of racism on BBC7 I saw how I was wrong. At the end of the program they said lots of statistic like in america the life quality and expectency is really bad compared to whites, unemployment of black people is twice of a white person also add on the fact of institutionlized racism and how it harder for a black person to get a job. Their were more examples, however you get the picture. The only postive statistic I could find is that the number of black and white rationship and children is increasing and that so called half caste people will be really common like half the population in the near future. I don't know the full statistic, however it was like in 2080 half the population of children in britian would be half caste.
Most of the racism today is hidden and people high up in social chain are racist and the lowest people in the social chain. The BNP what is a racist party wining a seat in parliment just show racism hasen't gone away. Although immegrant and illegal immegrant get attacked more then black people now. At the end they said how race was nothing I think 5 genes out of a thousand, the real reason for racism seem to be the exploitation of one person to benefit another. Slavery is a different story as their are slaves they make your shoes and your coffee.
