Why do you think racism still exists today in America?

Question

Tell me your thoughts and opinions about racism. I'm doing a reading response for my women studies course and I want to give reasons why racism still happens in America. It will benefit me and you in some kind of way. Please.

Answer 1

There is no doubt in my mind, there always has and always will be racism. I believe it is due to the experiences throughout one's life, their negative interactions with a group that causes racism to develop. The more openly practiced forms of racism are in majority passed down from family or other guardianships. Also some people are just born angry, they do not like people who dress, talk, act or are different from themselves, due in part because it seems odd or out of the ordinary from the actions which they are accustomed to. These sorts of people will always exist, and nothing can change that.
