Mr

Mr Throughout my life I have dealt with the problem of racism. Since I was a little boy I can remember how much more I was being watched than my white friends when we would go into stores. As a little boy I did not understand this, but as I grew I understood this and learned to hate it. While hating others for treating me like that, I was becoming no better. By looking down on them for them looking down on me, I was just feeding the flame of racism. I did not care; the only thing that mattered to me was hating them as much as they hated me because of my color. I have a black father and a white mother; you would think that this would in some ways lessen the effect of racism on my life, but to assume that would be wrong. If you thought that my being biracial was the lesser of two evils in the struggle of racism, you would be wrong yet again. I have had to deal with both sides of racism.
