It
seems racism has been around so long we would have been able to
overcome it as our species developed, but contact with those of whom we
are afraid of often lead to disputes, which, in time, made racism to
transform from people simply disliking each other, to the permanent and
indestructible foundation of common racism and prejudice.
Racism
is one of the most talked-about issues in the world today and is said
to have been derived from many places, with one of the most common ideas
being upbringing.
Most
of the times, African’s and those with black skin are the worse affected
despite the efforts by different organisations denouncing and
discouraging the scourge which has been on for a pretty long time.
Nollywood
actress Omotola Jalade-Ekeinde seems disturbed by the plague as she
recently voiced out her disapproval of racism; she called out African
leaders to manage their resources and citizens effectively so there will
be no need for African’s to travel to developed countries to seek a
better life.
“Totally
tired of all racism stories I read. Mostly, If Africa managed its
resources and respects itself and its own people, black image will
change.” She posted on social media.
