The world is home to over six billion human beings. These people belong to more than one hundred and ninety countries that share the planet together and have their own rules and laws. All of these countries have their own national languages and dialects that allow people to communicate well with each other.
These differences often lead to misunderstandings and instances of racism. Discrimination and prejudice are often contributory factors to the said rift. Even in the present times where everybody is aiming for openness and equality, it is quite saddening to note that such an issue still exists. This has even went on to seriously impede the growth of many facets of living, as even entertainment has been affected by racism in professional sports.
This social issue often exists because there are practices, beliefs, and even political systems that consider certain races to be inherently superior or inferior as compared to some. Most of the time, they are based entirely presumed inherent traits, abilities, and qualities. All of these has lead top a further rift between nations because people act based on presumptions.
Racism is not inherent in everyone. No one is born and instantly hates other races. For most cases, experts have reasons to believe that ignorance is one of its main causes. The things that one does along with the others in the community is the right thing for them. The things that others do differently are then considered wrong by these people, only because this is not the way they do such things.
Racists are often those people who have their share of insecurities and troubles that they impose their superiority upon others. Their acts come from the feeling of being victimized, worthlessness, and lacking the opportunities that they wanted to be theirs but are instead given to others. If everyone just learns to appreciate themselves and love them for everything that they are, they will surely learn to value everyone else as well.
Fear is also one of the main reasons to this certain societal issue. It is normal for humans to seek their own kind to feel protected. They are also afraid of getting replaced by someone better, somebody who they believe is more desirable and appealing as they are. This replacement is gong to make somebody feel unworthy, and will hide behind the mask of indifference and dislike.
The issue is a very serious one. It has even affected so many lives and so many parts of living. It can even have the power to destroy a person. It turns an otherwise happy and ambitious individual to somebody who is bitter, violent, and angry. It also hinders them from seeing the good and the beautiful in things. Ultimately, it can lead to depression and loss of the will to live.
It has managed to affect everything that man participates in, especially with the things that are supposed to make him happy. In the world of entertainment, racism is so rampant that it is evident even in professional sports. Instead of supporting those who are talented, people choose to see others based on their perception of a certain race, which is often not pretty.
What is saddening is that people fail to see people for their talents and skills. These should only be the main concern of sports. Everyone who is good should be allowed in, and not because of his gender, race, religion, or color.
