When you’re born or as a young kid you don’t look at another kid your age of different skin color and think “I don’t like you because you aren’t the same color as I am”. In fact, that is the least of your thoughts. Racism is something that is instilled in you, typically as a younger child. Racism is something that is constantly put upon someone as they are growing older. Parent’s will to young children “You don’t want to play with him he’s different that you” or “it’s not safe to play with him look at his skin color.” As a child you get gratification from making your parents happy and do not want to see them mad at you so you listen. Once one is old enough they have this hatred and dislike of every race but their own, but they can never reasonably explain why. Parents will teach their children that they should only date people of their race, saying it’s wrong to want to date someone of another race. Then the pattern continues on for generations. Even leaders that people look up to are making racist remarks to the public. It’s hard for something to disappear if our leaders of the country are acting
