Chapter (14) - Why Racism needs to end now? What is the Urgency??

In the US, the black americans have been suffering from this massive evil since more than 400 years now. Despite all efforts by great leaders like Abraham Lincoln, Martin Luther King Jr. and others, so many black americans get insulted, harassed, hit or shot dead for no strong reason at all. How long will this continue? In Pakistan, tens of thousands of hindus live a pathetic life. Even if they work hard, they can never become rich or powerful or influential, as the government rules are such there that a person from any other religion than Islam, can never rise in status. How long will this continue?? Near Palestine, the jews of Israel have unlawfully occupied stretches of land in the Gaza strip since 50 years now, the one which actually belongs to the muslim people of Palestine. They are not vacating it at any cost. This again is pure injustice. How long will this continue?? The Uighur muslims of China are persecuted very badly by the Xi Ping government there. They live in concentrati...

Chapter (12) - The brutal murder of Breonna Taylor and the unfair judgment

Breonna Taylor, a 26-year-old black woman, was fatally shot by  Louisville Metro Police Department  (LMPD) officers Jonathan Mattingly, Brett Hankison, and Myles Cosgrove on March 13, 2020. The officers entered her apartment in  Louisville, Kentucky , executing a search warrant. The officers knocked before forcing entry, but how the officers announced their identity before forcing entry is in dispute. Taylor's boyfriend, Kenneth Walker, fired a gun at the officers he believed to be intruders, who fired over 20 shots in turn. Taylor was shot six times in the hallway of her apartment and Mattingly was injured by gunfire. Hankison was fired by the LMPD on June 23, 2020. On September 15, the city of Louisville agreed to pay Taylor's family $12 million and reform police practices. On September 23, a state  grand jury  indicted Hankison not for Taylor's death, but on three counts of  wanton endangerment  for endangering a neighbor with his shots. T...

Chapter (11) - Racism is not just the Discrimination based on Skin Color

Some of us think that Racism is just the discrimination based on skin color. They are mistaken. Although discrimination based on skin color is one of the types of racism, it is not limited to that. We find racism done on other parameters too like racism based on religion, social status, bank balance, property like lands and buildings, number of highly luxurious vehicles owned by the person, residence in a particular prime and posh locality of a city, residing in a developed country, ancestral history, superior and inferior castes, intelligence levels, physical strength and so many more.  For some, Racism actually starts from a very early age as small as 4 years old. Suppose a kid gets admitted in a kindergarten school. He loves every thing there - his colleagues, his books, the playground and the teachers as well. But there is one teacher, who does not like him because he is of a different religion than most other kids. He/she starts discriminating with him from day one. The ki...

Chapter (10)- Episodes of Racism in World History

If we look at the history of the world, we find that Racism is as old as the human civilization. Humans are believed to have been existing on this planet since 200,000 years. Right from primitive stage when humans lived in caves, preyed on animals and lived savage lives racism has been there. Just like kindness, cruelty and to be a racist are inborn features of a human being. Let us look into detail about those different episodes of racism in human history, which have changed the course of things for the future or at least have been so intense that nobody is able to forget them even after passage of so many years. (1) Adolf Hitler's racism towards the Jew community:- ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Adolf Hitler is considered to be the person responsible for initiating World War 2 and the mass killings of millions of people therein. Some people call him the worst human ever, in recorded history. Why did he deliberately murder millions?...
