#TellUsHowYouReallyFeel … Has Racism Been YOUR Reality?

With the start of the George Zimmerman trial and the recent allegations that Queen of Southern Cuisine Paula Deen has made racial slurs, the question has become why in this day in age, racism continues to exist. In 2013, we still (for the most part) have to deal with the perception of who is REALLY the superior race…as if there was ever such a thing. In 2012, a young teen-aged boy was shot simply for being black as well as being in the wrong place at the wrong time. My heart goes out to Trayvon Martin’s parents as they struggle to cope with not only the loss of their child, but the very reason why they lost their child in the first place. Racism is nothing new. Its existed and flourished for centuries and unfortunately American culture is steeped in it. Many of us know of the horrors that some races of people have been subjected to by other races of people. Racism at one time had been an acceptable way of life, and the very act of blatant discrimination was not only the norm, it was expected. Today, discrimination still exists, but it’s now cleverly masked. Our social conscious has been raised to the point where it is considered not only politically incorrect to assume the worst in our fellow man based solely on the color of his skin; it is in most circles deemed downright wrong and offensive.
