Ethnic conflicts


Ethnics Conflicts

Remember that ethnic groups are a group of people who identify with one another, or are so identified by others, on the basis of a boundary that distinguishes them from other groups; for example, Asian people, Afro Americans, Muslims, Latino Americans, and others. The idea of this essay is to describe about how some facts like discrimination, religion and culture affect the different ethnic groups around the world.

The discrimination is mainly due to stereotypes that people have about other people such as skin color, countries where they are from, the way they look and other; for example, people think that “Latinos” are lazy, “Gipsies” are drug addicts, and “Afro Americans” are criminals. These ways of thinking do not let society move and make a huge problem between the people. However, the most important kinds of discrimination that exist are to believe that one group of people is better than others, because in the end everybody is the same.

Racism in religion includes a feeling of superiority and inferiority too. Racists are in his mind an idea that their religion is better than another and that are not in it are doing wrong. Racism in religion has a whole structure called ideology, perform rituals and practices of discrimination, have myths, make ceremonies of purification and to have moral values which stipulate what is good and what is wrong according to what the group belonging to create. For all this if religion is one of the ways to be closer to God and these people are doing it the right way, prejudices and discriminatory practices. Belonging to a religion for racist people competing religions and what they do is defending a space or a course where they belong. Religion makes people to feel different from others because the beliefs, customs and traditions are different; as a result, we don’t believe that people most to live with equal rights and obligations, so just there beginning the different ethnic disagreements.

For all these reasons, the possible solution to the ethnic conflicts that has existed and continues to exist is to educate children with a lot of values. Tolerance, respect, solidarity, and love for others despite how different we may be the really important is to see ourselves as equals no matter if we are rich or poor, blacks or whites, pretty or ugly because ultimately we are all brothers.

  3. Discrimination or racism has a negative impact. They are responsible for some very oppressive political policies, government actions, slavery, aggression, violence and death. I think it is a good idea to start educating children with more values
