Education

I believe that the one crucial thing to overcome racism is education. It is very important to inform yourself about other cultures, countries, religions etc. and critically overthink the stereotypical information you have heard and collected all your life. Just because people are doing things differently doesn’t justify discrimination or racism, because in their eyes, we are doing things differently.
Hair color, skin color, or the place people were born doesn’t nearly describe who they really are – what counts is the inside and what they are doing. So before prejudging someone just because they are from a different country or culture, get to know them and put yourself in their shoes – nobody likes to be left out or be treated differently!

The next step in overcoming racism would be: Spread your knowledge. Tell your family, your friends about the information that you’ve gathered and let them know what you have learned!
