One of my greatest fears of traveling to a white country and being a black man is to experience the negative part of this word which is racism. Most times I have feelings that there is always a reason to act racist to anyone regardless of color maybe because of past experiences of a racial color friend or colleague, but using this act to judge every other persons on their racial color is bad which can cause trauma to a lot of people.

I love white men and women, sometimes I even dream of marrying a white lady because I love their skin but looking at so many videos of how my color is being treated by some people makes me feel bad and have wrong thoughts towards white not intentionally and this is not meant to be because we all have our feeling and the way we express ourself regardless of our skin color. I know some black like me can be a pain in the ass, very troublesome, and dangerous but using this person to judge us all makes me feel bad. I will never want my kids to experience this kind of video and traumas I watch on how blacks are being treated, I want my child to grow with love and care around him not with fear or live and survival not living.
The truth is every human has confidence and feelings, the same way we feel bad towards people the same way others also do regardless of skin color, and upbringing matters a lot to so many people. People don't just wake up one day and begin to hate all black people, this I not possible, there is always a reason behind all these racist acts. I feel sometimes depression can cause this, anxiety, fear, jealousy, and a lot of things that can cause this to make people act this way. Some just love and gain pleasure in bullying a racial color which is wrong.

One possible solution I can recommend our leaders take heed to is to look into imbibing a Racial Education scheme into our educational curriculum, In this way, our younger ones won't need to to heat each other and build love and peace among each other. Racial Education should not just only educate on skin color but also educate the younger ones on how to love everyone and each other regardless of skin color. I believe love can be the bedrock of a lot of transformation and this will help reduce this act. Making a strict law against racism won't stop the hate of some people it might even worsen it, but creating this avenue will change a lot of things around us.
Another possible solution I observe is that there should be psychological rehabilitation for people who engage in racism to examine and recognize the major challenges and experiences that have developed this hate for a type of skin Color. People don't just wake up to hate the blue color the same way we don't just wake up to hate the red color, there is always an experience to be observed and examined that causes this bias in humanity. Sharing this with a friend you can trust who says the truth can help transform a lot of things around.

Hi there. You mustn't feel bad for the racist people, because our black skin not define you. The important here is who we are.
