Human beings are supposed to be kind and treat others with respect. The problem about humans, is the way we act toward each other based on their skin color. Racism is a major obstacle in multiple countries. Humans have a history of discriminating people on the simple things such as religion, language, and nationality. For example, when Rosa Park was victimized when she refuses to move to the back of the bus, she went to jail for standing up for herself and her race. At her time, white people were really racist and treated African American with disrespect. If she didn’t stand up for herself, we wouldn’t have a law of treating others with equality. She made a change and we should make a change as well. Therefore, tolerance, human qualities, and respect are the reason why people should accept others who are different from themselves.…
During my career I have reported to women managers and managed teams made up of men and women. Until I learned the important truth that men and women were designed to communicate differently, I had always strived to treat them the same. I now strive to understand the person and communicate with a style that is complimentary and easily understood. I have experienced firsthand many of the miscommunication exchanges described. For example, the women on my team have come to me complaining that they are unable to go to…
By recognising and understanding our individual differences and embracing those with simple tolerance create a productive environment in which everybody feels valued.…
People tend to reject what is different. Our differences/diversities can lead to growth as a society or it can lead to violence and hatred. We must value our diversity in order to work together for the common good of our society/world.…

I believe that, for people to get along, the students need to be aware of their own backgrounds as well as backgrounds of their peers. Reading, They’ve got to be carefully taught, by Susan Brady Konig, has changed my view. I agree with her claim that too much emphasis on cultural diversity may actually divide people of different ethnicities and cultures rather than bring them together.…
In the article “Race and The Raging Brain” by Jeffrey Kluger talks about how people have been driven apart by religion, language, and geography the most common reason for separation is race. Jeffrey Kluger explains reasons what makes a person so worried about humans of different color, and why something so simple has made a big difference and can make such hateful people.…
We all are different, there is no the same person in the world, so we should respect each other’s differences and cooperate.…
Although there has been moderate progress and many attempts to further unify races over the past decades, there is still a considerable division. It appears that Blacks will be acknowledged as being less important and treated with little respect in our western society. "He who is less than just is less than man" (55). As we have learned from the history of racism in the Deep South, people treat other races poorly not because of a person’s social and moral traits but because of the colour of their skin. This notion is evident in the book, where people refer to it as a “Lack of Unity” (32), showing that there is a clear division between white and black people in all aspects of life.…
Another question asked was what makes people behave this way and Maya Angelo said it best, we use the differences because we don’t know any better really, we use the differences between ourselves in hopes that doing so our individual lives will be better. Race is a big bashing two by four and we…
I think in this world we are all individuals who have something that stands out to others. No one is alike; even the most identical of twins have something different to them. If the distinction cannot be seen on them, than that difference might be inside like a flipped organ. Maybe with the differences we all strive for greatness. Some have to work for it, others are born with it. Alternatively you can be me, who grew up great yet still wants more. My experience as an African American male has led me to pursue a degree in History and minor in African American Diaspora studies.…
One of the most controversial problems in the world today is racial inequality. Ever since I was a little girl, I was always told to see the beauty coming from the inside of a person's heart and to never judge someone by the color of their skin. As I got older, I started to realize just how serious of a problem this was and that many people take racial segregation and inequality to an extreme level.…
* The United States is a melting pot of many cultures, races and ethnicities. I have learned that each group has differences and many similarities. With these differences they have taught me to be tolerant and accepting of them. By embracing the differences through our diverse society, I have learned new concepts of living, new ways to think, and have been introduced to a variety of foods that I have enjoyed. It seems in the end many of the groups that are so different have a common interest which is to love and be happy. It would be beneficial to our society if we would focus on the main interest of all, rather than focusing on how different we are from one another. Focusing on the differences and judging others based on them is something that was done in the past upon realization that closing the opportunity to learn about other cultures was hindering me in life.…
I have come to realize that just because I am African American and my classmate in school is African American does not mean that we share the same values or view life the same way. We all come from different backgrounds, walks of life, and have totally different experiences. Whether our experiences are good or bad could also determine our perception. For example, two people could be from the same ethnic group but have two different socioeconomic experiences. Or I could be going up for the same job as an African American male and he could get the job over me just because he is a man.…
