If I remember that one significant incident that happened years ago and still remember the exact emotions I felt, I can only imagine how the people that hear racial slurs on a daily basis feel. Racial slurs are never okay, they have never been okay and they can hurt people deep. Racial slurs are meant to hurt people, or make them feel less about themselves. Under no circumstances are they ever fair or okay. I believe that any kind of racial slur is considered Harassment. Harassment is regularly dealt with in the court of law. It stands to reason that racial slurs would be illegal because of their similarity to Harassment and discrimination. I honestly feel like people that use these slurs are cruel and heartless. No one deserves to be called out based on the color of their skin. No one knows the other’s story or knows what a person has to go through in their everyday struggle. For example in the book “To Kill a Mockingbird” Atticus Finch said that one will not understand how one feels unless he climbs into the other person’s skin and walks around in it. In other words, you will not know how hurtful the slurs that you say are until you’re in their shoes. Ultimately, they are unacceptable and no one should be judged by the color of their
