It's a bit weird being in the middle, being a mutt as it were. I think racism and racist ideas of any kind are foolish, ignorant and unnecessary in the world but we keep taking it further, we say we are against discrimination but then we rise up these schools specifically for a certain race or color, grants for certain race or color and so on.
What does race or color have anything to do with why we should be allowed to attend a certain school or get a grant or scholarship? Why do we still behave in such childish ways? Will racism ever really be fully dead? Will we ever be able to simply see each other as we are, all equal as human beings?
What is so important about race or color, in this day and age? The past is history, we live in today and should move on.
