Racism

The reality when it comes to racism is complex. The terminology is as difficult to describe as it meaning suggest. Man by nature has been created equally with same rights and privileges’.

In every society, there are certain norms and standard embedded in it; this helps us to understand what is abnormally rooted. Racism is demeaning and abhorred in every human sphere however; it is seen every day perhaps in the work place, organizations, job etc

Racism suggest a dominance of superiority over another racial group, instances of racism can been seen in different institutions

In the article “ 5 Examples of Institutional Racism in the United States” by Nadra Kareem Nittle. Racism in medicine has led to unethical medical experiments involving people of color and to minorities still receiving substandard treatment today. At present, a number of groups—blacks, Latinos, Arabs and South Asians—find themselves racially profiled for a variety of reasons. If institutional racism isn’t wiped out, there’s little hope that racial discrimination will ever be erased in the United States.

Further, racism has been largely described in the area of slave trade for instances Despite its far-reaching impact, many Americans would be hard-pressed to name basic facts about slavery, such as when it began, how many slaves were shipped to the U.S. and when it ended for everyone. Slaves in Texas, for example, remained in bondage two years after President Abraham Lincoln signed the Emancipation Proclamation. The holiday Juneteenth celebrates the release of Texas slaves.

Before legislation was passed to end slavery, slaves across the world fought for freedom by organizing slave rebellions. What’s more, the descendants of slaves fought against attempts to perpetuate racism after slavery during the movement.

The dangers of racism have been largely addressed by institutions; no wonder the equal opportunity in the labor law regarding employment is a welcome development. However more awareness program should be encouraged it order to reduce it to the barest minimum.
