Would you have treated Boyd or someone who is not of the same race as you differently? Why or why not? This question is in reference to a short story written by Shirley Jackson, After you, my dear Alphonse.
I would surely not treat someone based on their race. In my point of view, humans are all equal and we should see someone from their inner heart and and not based on their race and their skin color. We should instead judge someone based on their inner beauty. For the past few centuries, the dark-skinned races are the ones that are being discriminated the most. Most people think that they are smelly, stupid, slaves. However I do not agree with this type of thinking as this is not the way we should judge someone. There are a few examples that are really contradicting to the prejudice towards dark-skinned races. President Obama is dark-skinned but he became the president of the United States, Gandhi was also a great person as he started the non- violence movement.
LASTLY, I WOULD LIKE TO END THIS POST BY SAYING THAT WE SHOULD NOT BE JUDGING AND TREATING SOMEONE DIFFERENTLY JUST BECAUSE OF THEIR RACE!
Hi Ri Xin! Nice blog you have here. I would really like to comment on this post, but due to some formatting errors I think at least half your post is missing! Some parts are abruptly cut off so could you please do something about it?
