Racism Is Still Alive And Harming The Society Of America

What is racism? Racism is the belief that all members of each race possess characteristics or abilities specific to that race, especially to categorize it as inferior or superior to another race or races. Racism has changed a lot over the last century.

The Cambridge Dictionaries Online (2011) defines racism as “the belief that people's qualities are influenced by their race and that the members of other races are not as good as the members of your own, or the resulting unfair treatment of members of other races.”

The prejudice that members of one race are intrinsically superior to members of other races; discriminatory or abusive behavior towards members of another race, is the definition of Racism, according to Webster’s Dictionary. Today the use of the term “racism” doesn’t just fall under one single definition. Racist practices often include the idea that humans can be subdivided into groups that are different in their social behavior and innate capacities and that can be ranked as inferior or superior.

Racism is defined as poor treatment of or violence against people because of their race or the belief that some races of people are superior to others. This belief has been instilled in people for centuries. These beliefs have slightly deteriorated due to the civil rights movement.

The dictionary defines racism as “a belief that race is the primary determinant of human traits and capacities and that racial differences produce an inherent superiority of a particular race.” Racism is one of the worst things to ever come about in the history of America.

The Declaration of Independence, created in 1776, states, “We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.” (Thomas Jefferson).” No one should be subjected to being treated as if they are less than anyone. Everyone has different opinions on the issue of whether or not racism exists and if African Americans are treated lesser than any other race. Despite efforts to make everyone equal, I am willing to claim not all minorities are treated equal.

According to p12 (Racial and Ethical groups) racism is a doctrine of racial supremacy that states one race is superior to another. The cost of racism is evident in every society throughout the world; by understanding, that racism has a global cost that goes beyond the borders of the United States we can see the significant impact and catastrophic cost for many nations.

According to the Merriam-Webster Dictionary, “Racism is a belief that race is the primary determinant of human traits and capacities and that racial differences produce an inherent superiority of a particular race.” Racism has been apart of the world every since the beginning of mankind and the use of slaves from foreign countries. The slaves were seen as inferior people because they were a different race. An example of racism that is widely known is when the British settlers came over to America and forced the Native Americans to leave their land after they had helped the Spanish survive in the wilderness. The British and the Native Americans waged in a war over how the cruel the British were treating the Indians.

According to Mariam Webster, the definition of racism is, “a belief that race is the primary determinant of human traits and capacities and that racial differences produce an inherent superiority of a particular race.” However, to me racism is more than what is defined above. In my point of view, I consider racism not as only a belief, but also a disease that cause a chronic stress that leads to premature birth for African American women.

Let’s begin by defining the term racism. According to the Merriam Webster Dictionary, racism means the belief that some races are better than others. Newman defines racism as the belief that humans are subdivided into distinct groups so different in their social behavior and mental and physical capabilities that they can be ranked as superior or inferior.

Racism is a belief or doctrine that inherent differences among the various human races determine cultural or individual achievement, usually involving the idea that one's own race is superior and has the right to rule others. This trend has been around for a long time, from slaves, to discrimination, etc. Although in many cases, people in the time period
