Digital Story (Script)



Introduction:
Racism, It is strange beliefs of people that some of them are distinguish from the others. It is a conflict that generate by human being for who is the superior and how is inferior to make it a reason to exceed the rules and offence on people rights. That could lead to justify crimes against humanity, breach of justice, loss of rights and internal wars.

Do you know how racism came to existence? Well, the discrimination started after people from different regions live together in the same community. Therefore, some of them want to take an advantage by the group that he or she belongs to (blacks and whites for example)

History

In 1933, Nazi’s ideology represents declaration of war against people who inferior to them and consider themselves as the purest human races.

In 1950 in South Africa, A law issued to allocate places to separate whites from blacks and forced to put barriers around areas where African live, but the African fought and struggle to take their rights and defeat the racism.
Meanwhile, the black Americans have suffered from racial discrimination and unfair treatment by US government who supporting white people and priorities them than black Americans.
Is racism limited to the difference in colors only?
With the passage of time. Racism has changed to different forms. It becomes even between the same groups of people. It becomes huge, complicated and strange as well.  

Types: 
Sectarianism
Sectarianism is one type of racism that arise when there are two parties or more in one community. In addition, there is some common factors between them, such as language and customs. This racism leading to civil war for example, conflicts between nationalists and unionists in Northern Ireland.

Religious racism
Religious racism is somewhat different from those may arise in some countries and is no in other countries. What ignites that racism and intolerance are the discord and accidents that do it one of the categories that belong to some religions, leading to conflicts and this kind of racism infectious disease and may move from one country to another, as is the case in India (Buddha, and Muslims) and in the other countries.

The ethnic racism
One of the oldest racism exerted on humanity from a long time ago. It was practiced ethnic racism between whites and blacks and other ethnicities living in the same geographic area. Now in this days the ethnic racism is subtle or not practiced openly and but for this type of activity has faded and now practiced lightly. It was been practiced in American States about 350 years ago.

Gender Racism
Gender Racism briefly is the distinction between the sexes in the areas of working life, social, intellectual and other areas of life that women can excel through it and add their mark in this life.

Stereotypes

it is an idea or an image comes to human mind when someone heard about a group of people in somewhere.

We saw many examples of racial stereotypes. Racial stereotypes could be positive like:
1.       Black people are good athletes. They are fast, great basketball players and most of them are in good shape.
2.       Asian are smart, hard workers, technology lovers.
3.       Arabs are rich because of oil and they can make a good money.
It could be negative as well like:
1.       Asian should not drive a car.
2.       All white people are racist.
3.       Muslims are terrorist.
Negative stereotypes are effect people who not related to all of those.
This can make harassments in some places like work or school and that effect on the performance.
Feel frustrated of living under discrimination pressure.
Not feeling safe and peace of mind.

Because of that, people start to make campaigns to prevent racism

Campaigns against racism
Uefa campaign
In 2001, the European football association start a campaign against racism and discrimination. The title of this campaign is No to racism. This campaign is being priorities after players from different countries suffered from racial discrimination.


Racism. Is stops with me
This Australian campaign aim to raise the awareness of people that racism is unacceptable in Australian community and stops any organizations that try to do any racism activities.

  
Conclusion
In the end, we should rise of cultural awareness to help people understand the variety of people colors, beliefs and emotions
The deployment of equality and Spreading peace in the world is enhancing the standard of living makes people live together to build the future for the next generation, and live without discrimination.

A human being is not born as a racist.. So let us keep it that way. Not ruins it by racism.
