I Have a Dream

What is ''race''? What is "racism"? What are "Civil Rights"? I believe a person's race is only based on how they look. I might look like people that are from countries near mine, but we are not really the same. Some people would think we are the same because we have the same hair or skin. Race is putting people into groups not based on where they are from or what they do. It doesn't relate to culture. Just looks. Racism is terrible. It is putting people above or below each other based on how they look. When you group someone by their race, you are ignoring everything about them. There is no way to know what a person does or what they think by looking at them. Many people in America talk about race and not very many people mention it in Saudi Arabia. I don't feel comfortable talking about race with people. I want to understand it, more. Civil Rights are something people of many races have fought for. I think it involves the law, mostly. Even after a government grants race groups civil rights, sometimes the regular people still have problems with the outcome. It is important for people to be equal in their government's eyes, but it would be best if they were equal in each other's eyes, too.
