Are we Teaching Racism to the Children?

 Hi, I just saw a video that almost made me cry, a video with a young boy trying to have fun on the playground, but he couldn't. And even though his mom was there with him, they weren't allowed to enter because they were challenged. challenged not by bad weather or a broken slide or an illness. They were challenged by the color of their skin. Racism is horrible. It's always bad. But this time, it hit me because it was caused by young children. They laughed at that boy, they called him a monkey, and even hit him in front of his mom, like he didn't matter. Like he wasn't good enough to use that slide. Like he was into humans into a human. After many more tries, the boy and mom moved away to an empty area of the duck playground. Finally, the boy could have some fun as he sued. 

But as soon as he started playing, the same children screamed at him. They couldn't accept the fact that he was still there, to the point that they approached him and his mom again, called them names, and even hit that boy in front of his mom again. And at that point, she knew that the best way was the way out, she took the boy and left that playground passing by the parents who played with their children who sat on the benches right next to them fully ignoring what just happened. This is crazy. What do you think about this? What do your friends and family think about this?  and as I used to be just like these patterns, back in the day, if I saw it happen next to me, I wouldn't react. But not anymore. I know. The next time I see something like this, I won't let it happen. And so should you no matter how old you are, at home and school outdoors, never be accepting of racism. Because what's most shocking to me is not just the fact that such young children can be racist nowadays, or the parents can let it happen so carelessly, but also how patiently this mom reacted to it as if it's an everyday lie, as if this happened many more times before and to her is not an expected anymore. This is her normal.

 Every single day, people all around the world experienced racism, “Dante was bullied so badly because of his race” someone says., “he had to change school”. It comes in many forms. And now we know that it also comes from people of many ages, every day, it makes humans lives harder. It makes them unable to feel equal to remove that label attached to them, just because of the color of their skin. We need to say a freaking loud no to racism so that we don't have young children growing up next to us thinking that this is the right way to be. We can't remove racism from this world just yet. But what we can do is to make sure that with each year with new generations, it will slowly die.
