Do you ever think that racism will ever end?

picture of a black man drinking out of a fountain - this picture was taken after the slavery days were over but before blacks were ever actually able to drink out of the whites water. I hope that no one found this affensive, it wasn't meant to be.

I am tired of people being racist. Okay, so maybe you don't want to date that specific race but is that a reason to call names or make fun of them. I hope that by the time my oldest daughter turns eighteen, that there won't be any racism.

I dont think it will end. People are always going to stereotype others by their skin color or hair color or body type. It's sad but true.

I think my daughter's generation will hopefully bring an end to it. The only reason it still exists today is the number of people who were around during segregation and before the civil rights battles that never got over what they were taught and passed that on to their children.

I honestly don't think racism will ever end. It's sad but true. I think nowadwys people are just doing a better job covering it up.. Personally I see nothing wrong with interracial couples. Its actually a beautiful thing to see.

I also agree I don't see anything wrong with it but I do have family that does. I am a mixture of seven diffrent races and everytime I hear one of them say that we shouldn't mix, I just laugh.
