Racism Speech
Hello every one , as most of youse already know my name is Anill goman and I’m here today to talk to you about an extremely serious issue that faces society today, racism. Racism is the discrimination of a person because of the race that they have inherited. There are many different types of racism, for example racism because of skin colour, birth place, religion e.c.t but they all got a couple of things in common. All kinds of racism are despicable and create a negative and sometimes dangerous emotional response.
Racism not only leads to social problems but in severe cases it causes mental illness and violence e.g. self harm, depression and the harming of others. In most cases it causes the victim to feel helpless, depressed and angry as most of youse already know from experience but what you guys didn’t know tough is that in the most severe cases it leads to suicidal thoughts and the sad thing is that in the worst cases these thoughts are carried out and its usually by a young teenager. That’s a young person with their whole life ahead of them claiming their life because a few people can’t accept them because they are a little different.
If racism has such negative effects why do people be racists? Well ask yourself why have you ever been racist or why others are racist? ( give them a moment to think) many answers come in to my mind but the three main reasons why people are racists is because as mentioned before they can’t accept people different to them, have experienced events that has harmed them or people important to them caused by a particular race or/and stereotype a race. People can’t accept others different to them because they believe that they should receive different treatment to them because in their opinion because their different their unnormal. The reason why people stereotype or are racist because of past events that have harmed them or their loved ones is because a member of that race has caused them harm they stereotype that whole race as
