* <----star of destiny User ID: 279402 United States 09/22/2007 02:09 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Negative stereotypes about ones race, nationality, ethnic group or religion I have noticed many times that people will believe in negative stereotypes about their respective race, religion or ethnic group. Racism is not just what one group thinks about your group but also what your group thinks about itself.
I have met people from every race, nationality and ethnicity that actually tried to live up to every negative stereotype said about their group.
Be it Italians and the mafia thing
Blacks and the physically superior thing
Irish with the fighting and drinking thing
Jews with the money sense thing
Germans with the overall superiority thing
Chinese with the working harder thing
Russians with the toughness thing and drinking thing
....i could go on and on but you get the idea.
I find all of it stupid.
Before any human is a part of any religion, nationality, ethnicity or any group at all they are human beings first ...we are losing our humanity due to this racial nonsense. |
