Have you ever stopped to think about why some people are prejudiced and act this way? Have you wondered what someone did to this one person to hate everyone that looks or speaks like this person? Sadly, there are many persons who feel this way. They have treated others as low as insects! I would say animals but many animals are treated way better than the way some people treat each other.
Slavery
In our history books, we are taught at an early age about how people were treated as slaves all over the world and if you had slaves you were considered wealthy by the number of slaves you had. And I’m sure this happened all over the world and still does to this day. But we know it by different names. One that is very popular today is human trafficking.
Human Trafficking
They are taking our youths and selling them to the highest bidder in sex trafficking. Child labor is another, enslaving children to work and paying them under a dollar an hour or nothing at all. Even adult persons are not paid what they are worth in today’s labor.
Many owners of big companies talk down to persons that work in their establishment. Yes, they may be the owner of the company, but if it wasn’t for the workers doing their part, the owner would not have a company to run in the first place.
Treating people differently because of your position says a lot about you. If you are a fair person and you treat everyone with kindness and give compliments to all your employees and are observant of all of your workers from highest to lowest – (meaning just hired). You would have an amazing workforce.
Everyone likes to hear that they are doing a great job and that they are being noticed.
Management
Sadly, there are those who are put into management positions that they did qualify for but start to abuse it by treating people like slaves, threatening to get them moved to a different department, or fired.
I know many people when given a higher position, think everyone else is beneath them. Just because someone gives you a higher position, doesn’t mean you treat people wrong and abuse your position. I know many people that have been treated wrong by prejudiced people, yet have a big heart to forgive them.
Then there are those, like me, who do not keep quiet and speak out, because I’m tired of the stupidity that was taught to an innocent child, that people that do not look like us are evil. Or that people that do not speak like us are talking about us behind our back. putting that kind of ignorance in a child is beyond stupid!
We can make a difference in this world if we work together, not just in times of disasters, but also in times of peace.
Judgment
Just because one bad person did something really bad, doesn’t mean that all that race of those same people is all bad. Every race has its bad people. But it also has the people who do care and hate what the others do.
So, I ask all of you are you born a Racist! Or raised to be one?
