Racism


Race is a group of people who share the same feature like white, black, and Asian. Racism is based on a belief that one race is superior to other races. Centuries ago white people made black people as slaves. The slaves had no human rights, and they were treated as a property. After the civil war in America, the slaves got freedom. However, discrimination was still going on for a long time. For example, segregation policy divided white people and other races. Non- white people could not study at the same school, and even bus and streetcar had a designated seat by the race. Black people tried to fight to gain the human right, and it is called “Civil right movement.”
