"women are particularly vulnerable to street violence, and young black males are drastically overrepresented among the perpetrators of that violence."
Racial discrimination exists anywhere. I think it arises from prejudice and misconception. All men are equal. It means people can’t be treated differently according to gender, social class, race and culture. Although these prejudice lessened compared to before, the racism is still serious problem in our society. As globalization becomes our future society, the issue of racial inequality is an inseparable part of our big social problem. This is why we need to think about this problem wholeheartedly. We need to feel and practice a sense of tolerance in order to solve this problem. I think when we understand the difference of others and learn how to cooperate with such differences can this issue of discrimination be tackled with tangible results.

I agree with you.
I think that many people forget that all men are created equally.
Gender, race and culture are the only thing that people already have had since they were born . I mean those things don't represent people's personality or something at all. also those things shouldn't be criterion of judge of others. (younghee Jeong)
Americans stand at the very front of the battle against racial discrimination (Leslie)
Though we always blame that America is a country with most racial issues or problems, actually Americans are people who have been fighting against racial problems most and progressed most in this battle.
Since America has most races in the world, the racial issues are most conspicuously exposed here. In some countries like Korea or Japan, people are mostly from one race and racial problem has never appeared as an issue, though in recent years with more foreign workers swarming in, it is emerging in many areas. It doesn't mean that people in uni-race countries have no racial discrimination. Therefore, we should admit that America has confronted most struggles of this social problems and obtained most achievements in it.
Imagine if in your country, there are so many people of different races living, or in each family, half of the members are from other races, how will your people react?
