Lets talk about racism lovely people of Steemit community. Racism which has been a great battle the world is fighting for and it has been such a great challenge for the world. Racism is where one has the belief that his race is superior and it brings some sort of discrimination. People discriminate based on color of the skin, religion,sex etc. Some white people feels they are much more intellectual and much more powerful than that of black people whiles blacks also feels they are much more beautiful and strong than whites. A lot of great people have fought racism which they eventually lost their lives. The great Martin Luther King Jr was well know to have fought racism with his all he got just to let blacks have equal rights and freedom in America. At some point, Americas felt they have eliminated racism but thats not the case. Barrack Obama became the first black president and black people felt its their time to be free which Obama did a great job in doing. People still criticize Obama that he did not do well on racism but poor Barrack just can eliminate or undo what 41 white presidents did in America.
We this world is gonna be a place of peace for everyone, then we should give everyone equal opportunity, freedom and privilege to a particular job, position, School etc. Color shouldn't make one feel so superior over the other.White is beautiful but black is beautiful too. W e are all equal on the face of earth. Martin Luther King Jr said this "Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that.” if we love and appreciate each other, this world would become such an interesting place for all. I really want to congratulate the management of Steemit for not being racist or discriminating on what kind of people to blog on this platform but they rather made is for all. Thank you so much the good work done. Together and with support of the steemit society we SAY NO TO RACISM!!!!

Racism sucks!

Thank you've raised the topic of racism may among all living beings in the world we can co-exist without having to look at any, religion, race, tribe, nation

Not to be a grammar nazi but this is one of my biggest pet peeves. According Webster, not Google, which is ridiculous with definitions, I think you mean "prejudice" or pre-judging someone based on their background. Racist means you think your race is superior to others in some way like you said but juding someone on race is prejudice. I don't think anyone really believes their race is "the best" rather they pre-judge them like saying "all Asian people are successful". Asians may be the wealthiest race in America with the high education levels but it doesn't mean they are ALL that way just like not ALL whites like mayonnaise.

Conservatives and Libertarians, like me, didn't care what race Obama was - he was actually half white but none of that matters to us. We just prefer small central government and low taxes. Criticizing him, we were labeled as racist when you could have had a turd sandwich telling me they're going to take more money from my pay check and I still would have criticized him. Everything is not about race and just because you find one prejudice conservative, doesn't mean all conservatives are prejudice-that's a fallacy. I actually find your rhetoric a bit prejudice implicating all white presidents were prejudice and Obama had to "undo" it and it's time for black to live free? Pretty sure blacks were living free before Obama took office in 2009. That's the great part about freedom though-you can believe what you want.

I agree with you on Steemit though, there aren't many fools on here.

you absolutely have a point
