What Is Racism?

It is a prejudicious conception that categorizes one race as intrinsically superior or better than another

History

• Slavery was the pre-formation of racism– Slavery existed in ancient Egypt (5,000 years ago)

• When humans began to build greater civilizations, also greater in size and structure, people were categorized to each social class.– Countries like India and Japan had formed distinctive caste

systems, which harshly restricted the advantages of those in lower class.

• Black descendants and former slaves began to settle down as slavery lost its power over

• Despite their eloquent speeches and elaborate protests, black people were continuously seen as inferior to other races

• Racism is still stretching its tenacious roots in our society today.

– Racism still exists on the internet and other web forums.– Many racist jokes and pranks are posted on the internet,

available for anyone any time asking to join their racist group.
