does+racism+still+exist?Rwells

I believe that racism still exists. I believe this because of certain incidents that we see today. For example, there was an incident that occurred in Pennsylvania at a public swimming pool when whites did not want blacks to swim in the public pool. Because of the neighborhood children appearance Slavery was started by all American men and women. According Ms.Alvarez, The first slaves were slaves were the Irish. Then as all American slaves began to see how Africans were very skilled in laboring and surviving in harsh conditions, which then led to Africans becoming the preferred slaves. As time passed, Africans, Mexicans, and Irish were all as one. They were later divided to keep from possibly joining together and joining an army, and to keep from stopping slavery and slave-masters. Another example is one that has to do with me, which was when my two cousins and I were crossing the street, and one guy yelled, “f*** you niggers,” because, I guess, we got in his way. I felt offended, but I did not care because I knew there was nothing I could do about that. I believe that the government should try to address racism, but I feel that the government can not do any thing about it. But I do believe that the government should address racism because maybe something important could be said. Maybe someone could be influenced and realize that there is __NO__ point of racism .I feel that people are going to feel the way they feel, regardless of what people say. So I believe that racism will never end until racist people just get a clue, and realize that racism is ridiculous; segregating a group does not make you better than anyone else.
