RACISM

 

Racism

Racism has been a part of humanity for a long time, even in 2020 this feeling of hatred and superiority towards people of color remains. IN COLOMBIA, where we have African ancestors, we still have to put up with some people talking and treating people of color in a terrible way in the country.

We recently witnessed major acts of violence against this group of people, such as the murder of George Floyd, which generated much shock and rejection in some parts of the world.

Globally, it is #Black lives matter, as a form of protest against these types of racist acts.

It would be difficult to say in this type of issue which would be a definitive solution, because it may not exist, but a good solution is education from home, teaching and promoting respect. Also know, because intolerance sometimes goes hand in hand with ignorance, for example, a long time ago, a 14-year-old boy was tortured for having flirted with a white girl, so that years after the boy died, the girl would confess that he had exaggerated in some parts of her story.

 

for them I invite you to educate ourselves and understand that we are all different, regardless of skin color. to foster respect in our family and social groups. 

through posters, published on social networks and maybe print and paste them in different parts of the city, so that the campaign reaches many more people.
