Racism= stupidity
Go back to the Red Indian times
Why did so many Red Indian massacred in those times?
1.I think the European settles didn't like the way they
looked.
Eg Europeans with their pinky complexion,yellow and other colour hair and eyes sudden have to get shock to see with Red indian and others...it was a shock.
People treated them like animals due to ignorance and fear.
in those days,dark and ugly looking people were
considered bad and evil etc.
You see .....it is human nature to see things pleasing to
the eyes.....
eg In many movies and others bad people are always
dipicted as ugly looking creatures etc
eg when people see a cockroach or a lizard,the first
things one want to take a stick and hit it....because
it looks creepy and ugly...
Similarly People pass judgement.they like people
beautiful...pleasing personality etc......that is why
the king and other used to marry beautiful people.
even those not so beautiful ...want to mix between
beautiful people so that the next generation of mixed breed or hybrid would have some of the features
and a better personality.
====================================
OFCOURSE
the more people get to know about cockroaches and
lizards....the dislike or fear of their ugliness is over shaddowed by the fact of other Qualities like good
manners,politeness,well educated,talented etc come
to light other than looks etc.
eg if the cockroach is a friendly creature and more people know about them they become ACCEPTED and become part of the liked group.
CONCLUSION
=========
Ignorance and fear ...verses getting to know the creature
2.The other reason why Red indians could have been
targetted is perhaps the settlers wanted their possessions
mainly LAND to make their own colonies or their
horses or their GOLD etc.

Ok this has been bothering me for a long time now. It is disapointing to see whites hate blacks, or whites hate jews, or asians hate blacks. Ok I have a little fact for all those people how say that other races are sub-human. the color of a person skin has nothing to do with who they are. It is the color it is because of where their ansestors lived. African americans skin is darker becuase over the years their skin darkened to addept to the weather.
Plus another thing, we are all brothers and sisters in this earth. If family lines we're taken back far enough people would see that we are all decendants of noa and his family. Take it back even further and you see that we are all decendants of adam and eve. So why do people still say that others are less than human when the facts show that we are all born from the same blood lines?
Why do people fear what they do not know?
