Forums - General Discussion - Does racism exist in your City?

I think it's naive of anyone to believe that racism is long and dead and that we're all one big happy multi-ethnic family.

There's so much inner racism going on that people aren't willing to admit to it in fear of being tainted as a hater and un-patriotic since the government wants you to believe we're accepting but there's still a big divide.

Just look at america, Michael Richards, Don Imus using the "N" word. When Jack Cafferty called the chinese people "Bunch of crooks and thieves that they always were".

Then of course people attacking Bill Clinton for being a racist when we all know he is not but he's being unfairly targetedas racist for attacking african americans just cause of what he said.

Even americans are still pondering whether they can trust their first black president.

And i hate how canadians think we're so much better because we don't discriminate but asians are the biggest ethnics in this country and many rural canadians hate asians, they just don't want to admit it.

So if you think racism is long dead in your city, or not so much, then you're being naive.

Just about my entire town hates Mexicans. So most definitely, yes.

Of course, institutionalized hatred doesn't help matters much.



Racism exists everywhere no matter where you live.



As London is an extremely multicultural place racism is very rarely prescent in the open or in public places, it all happens more subtly . However if someone has had too much to drink and they have got into a confrontation then all the above can change.



Racism will always exist anywhere. My town is pretty bad cause over 50% of our town is hispanic (population 18000)



It depends on how you define racism.

With the most liberal of meanings racism is everywhere. When it comes to stricter meanings racism is pretty scarce most places.
