I was thinking about people who are racist and what involves racism. I have come to a realization that racism involves two emotions, love and hate. For one to be racist a person has to both love a certain race of people and in that love you then begin to hate another “race(s)”. I myself am white and I do not love the white “race” so in turn I do not hate any other race because I do not single out another to love.
To take this even further the idea of a “race” of people being superior over another is not only narrow minded but scientifically false. Science has proven that a person’s race does not determine whether they are more superior to another. So if a person just looks around and knows that we are all 99% genetics the same the word “race” should have no meaning.
Now a quick blurb on why we think we are different. In my opinion a person with different skin color or who looks different is not different because of their “race” but it’s their culture. A person’s culture is what defines a person and make then different from everyone else. It just happens that a different persons culture usually is involved with people of different looks. Again, a person just needs to see that people of the same “race” have different culture that separates them. Russian culture is totally different then English culture yet they are both white. Even within the United States culture the southern part of the US has a different culture then the northern yet they can be even a mix of “races”.
These are just my opinions and views on race. I myself am not racist because like I stated I do not love my “race” so I cannot hate another. In this day and age the term race, racist and racism should be removed from our society. A new correct term should maybe be culturalist or culturalism. I am not even use of these words exist yet but the word race should only refer to a contest of speed or a need of urgency, not a group of people.
