Social inequality: Racism

 Hi everyone! This is my last blog and I’m going to talk about the racism in Chile, a very hard social problem that is still present despite all the years and all the social crisis that have passed.

Racism is the discrimination by an individual or community against a person or people on the basis of their membership of a particular racial or ethnic group.

Specifically, in Chile, there are many people who discriminate against immigrants. for example, in places like Estación Central or Quilicura there are many foreigners from different countries like Haiti, Peru, Colombia, Venezuela, etc. who are constantly discriminated by Chileans.

This should not happen because it is more than clear that all people are the same no matter where they are from. No one is allowed to look down on another or treat someone badly because of their color or language. We are all supposed to include immigrants as they are in a different country than the one they grew up in.

It is true that the majority of people of our generation and new ones are not racists. Most of us think that we are all the same, and therefore we have to educate other people who think differently on this subject. As a generation with new thoughts, we must try to raise our voice with our beliefs and reduce these social problems such as racism that unfortunately are still present in our society.

Thanks for reading my last blog!
