STEREOTYPING IS A FORM OF RACISM

Everyone is guilty of viewing people through a "stereotyped" viewpoint...some more than others.

We should never judge people by their race, color of their skin, status in life...or by what part of the country/world they live in.

Believe it or not, it is okay to live in a trailer.  I live in a very nice house but it sets my teeth on edge when I hear someone call another person, "Trailer trash."   I hate the "N" word, even though I am white.  I especially hate it when someone refers to a Jew in such a manner as if there is something wrong with them.  Some people refer to the TEA party as being a "redneck" movement which is an outright lie.  Do you get my drift?

We really should not judge a person(s) at all but if we do...it should be on character.  If they are black, white, or purple with yellow polka-dots, they should be judged on their behavior/character and nothing else. 

Let's all take personal responsibility to eliminate "RACE" out of our lives.  Am I being naive to think that will ever happen?
