White People Pity towards Black Community is Reinforcing Racism on Both Side

  People of colors or in particular black people in America currently have been uplifting the lives of their own people since many demonstrations and rallies were being held in order to against racism towards People of Colors. The movement was not merely shining the moderate and progressive people, but it was also highlighting the extremist in their community as well; Thereby, the movement has created destructions such as burning buildings, raiding markets, or even justifying the crimes whom committed by black people. The pendulum has swung too far till the point some of the black people who considered extremist would argue, they have legitimate consent to intimidate white people in general.

  White people in America nowadays are indicating low self-esteem merely because of their skin color. Moreover, with the fact regarding their ascendants have been slaved black people and murdered them in large number of people whereby made white people feel guilty. I would argue the ultimate racism is saying somebody was not deemed as a racist if the victim was white people. Unfortunately, white people are letting the disrespectful towards their race since it is already enacted in their believes about a person cannot be racist towards them. In addition, mouth-to-mouth stories regarding the oppression and the savage white people were subconsciously influenced the way their thinking and digesting the information. They are assuming the past and current circumstances are still the same. It could be happened because they were putting the stereotype of privilege for being white. Currently, some of the black people were negating white people to use their privilege in order to gain a greater number of votes for Kamala Harris as a candidate whom represent People of Colors. On the other side of the fence, black community also has problem with the higher chance to pursue raiding on supermarket; Thereby it indicates severe poverty and low morality in the community which has never been addressed yet.

     The main issue within the community is using historic as excuse in order to justify slur or rant to another races. It will continue the ongoing discrimination over generation to generation if some of them had not realized their belief is not normal and led them to everlasting racism in America. Beside of that, white people right now did not have any responsibility for their great grandfather’s has done in the past because it is not relevant to them. Indeed, racist people always exist and latch in anywhere whether in government, neighbors, instances, but it should not have determined and generalized someone’s value is above or below other people merely because of their skin tone. Therefore, both white and black people should not make any gap in current society because they are clinging on slavery era since it is absolutely not correlate with people who live in modern society right now. Nevertheless, many factors could lead the prejudice and stigmatize certain race whether the community got influence from internal or external.

     Many people would assume the negatives side in the black neighborhood were triggered by the opportunity and no one was taking firm action and labelled slur towards white people is racism. In addition, the projection as a form of lack self-esteem made people have the audacity to dump their abhor into another people. Those reasons can be address by willingly take solid actions towards person who frequently showed racism either in implicit or explicit way. We can learn from recent occurrence from Arthur Grand Technologies who was hiring merely white people. The Department of Justice (DOJ) has chosen firm movement in order to addressing the discriminatory by giving a civil penalty. Never hesitate to call the authority when somebody did discriminations is one of the keys to slowly preventing the domino effect in society.

     As a result, some of the problem within the black community were coming from their own people. The definition of racism has been distorted whereby made some of the Americans are thinking somebody cannot be racist towards white people. However, I hundred percent belief the ascendants of black people are want to see their own descendants to be more wisely and not step to the same level as white ascendants which is pursuing racism. I would suggest to more investing in education because some of the school for the majority of black students are outdated. Furthermore, the lack of education intervention could lead black children cannot capable to distinguish the reality on the field and the false imagination regarding white people are still prejudice and racist towards them even though nowadays people are not into discrimination in compare to slavery era. Despite racist people are always exist, black community should not make white people feel guilty because skin tone is not something which can be choose or alter. However, it cannot eliminate the entire idea of racism within the community but rest assured the next generation will proud of their own ascendants because it will slowly make the trend of racism go down.
