I Hate Racism and Discrimination

@Justpeace. I'm sorry to hear that exists in your family. I'm glad to hear you refuse to join in and change who you are regardless of what others feel or do around you. Thank you for that.

When I was a kid there was no hate in my family but there were racial jokes and the like. It bothered me. We had family friends who's races were included in the jokes! When I became an adult, my father was visiting me and said a racial joke at my dinner table. As soon as I got a moment alone with him (so he wouldn't loose face) I told him the time for those sorts of comments is over and to refrain from doing it again in my home. I didn't disrespect him but I made my point of view clear as a whistle.

Similar happened when I was in the Army. I am Cuban but I look typical white American so people would make comments around me that were completely inappropriate not realizing I was a minority. I joined the Equal Opportunity Board within 6 months of enlistment.

@Flaunt I think that is not okay whatsoever and there's no easy answer for me. I find hate in my own family but I don't want to hate them back. I'm tempted to believe me. It's just how I feel but I understand not everyone agrees with me. I do hate that it happens the way it does.

@Flaunt Its really sad that with all of the 'help' out there these days that is supposed to be of 'help' to people in understanding the racist thing that there are those that still carry hate. I think it's raising a little but though in the world but never fast enough for me.

Justpeace.- People who believe it's OK to be inhuman or unjust to others because they feel their own race is superior to another.

I guess I'm confused. What do you hate? The separation?

Thanks but I'd rather just keep them out of mind. :)

Justpeace, you can hate the haters.
